Fungal Nanotechnology: A New Approach Toward Efficient Biotechnology Application

Nanotechnology is a wide developing area of the biotechnology since the important applications of nanoparticles (NPs) in different technologies. The NPs produced by green technologies have many advantages such as greater surface area and high catalytic activity, in addition to providing a suitable contact between the metal salt and enzyme. Fungi secrete proteins, enzymes, and reducing agents which can be used for the synthesis of metal NPs from metal salts.
