ABSTRACT: Green synthesized gold nanoparticle is one of the most promising drug delivery approaches with biocompatibility and biodiversity. Various plant sources such as Aegle marmelos, Eugenia jambolana, Soursop, Persea Americana, Terminalia chebula, Aloe arborescens, Musa paradisiacal, Alternanthera philoxeroides, Cissus quadrangularis, Sterculia acuminate, Garciniaindica choissy, Eucalyptus globulus, Rosmarinus officinalis, Punica granatum, Pistacia atlantica, Pistacia integerrima, Juglans regia, Curcumae kwangsiensis; fungal sources as Pleurotus cornucopiae var. citrinopileatus, Cladosporium cladosporioides; other microbial sources as Magnusiomyces ingens LH-F1, Micrococcus yunnanensis, Padina tetrastromatica are used to develop biocompatible gold nanoparticle with veritable diversified particle size and applicability profile as anticancer (especially against breast cancer, liver cancer, ovarian cancer and lung cancer), antibacterial agent, photo luminescent, heavy metal sensor, etc. If biogenic sources are composed of a large number of hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups, it can behave as reducing agents to develop gold nanoparticles with immense biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. This novel approach and data are very much encouraging and may be considered as one platform for searching all the important green synthesized gold nanoparticles and might be an index for evaluating drug activities.

INTRODUCTION: Since time immemorial, people in India, Europe, Egypt, Greece, and other South American countries have used plants, fungi, and moulds as traditional medicine 1-2. Traditional herbal medicines are naturally occurring derived substances with minimal or no industrial processing that have been used to treat illness within local or regional healing practices 3-6.
In ancient India and Himalayan regions, sages triturated medicines with gold for better efficacy, as gold was known as ‘Amrita’ because of its cell rejuvenating 7-8, antibacterial l9-11 and immuno-modulatory properties 12-13.
In the 17th century, Nicholas Culpepper demons-trated the use of gold elixir in the treatment of melancholy, and fever 14-15. The composition of gold and sodium chloride [Na (Aucl4)] was effective in the treatment of syphilis. In 1890, Robert Koch developed potassium gold cyanide [K{Au(CN)2}] as bacteriostatic agent. At that time, sodium aurothiomalate and aurothioglucose were considered highly effective agents in chrysotherapy for rheumatoid arthritis.
During this period, the chemistry of gold elucidated that it had six oxidation states as –I, 0, +I, II, IV, V, and amongst them, gold (0) was found more stable than gold (I & III). But gold (I) was more thermodynamically sound than gold (III) and it produced high protein interaction with albumin and metallothioneins 16. Auranofin was the first gold molecule found active against cancer but not effective against solid tumours as compared to cisplatin, whereas its digold phosphine complex displayed good anticancer activity 17. [AuCl2 (damp)] was endowed as the effective molecule against colon, breast, rectum, bladder, and ovarian cancer, and [Au(OAc)2damp] was considered as a powerful inhibitor against S. aureus, E. coli, E. facealis, and P. aeruginosa. Nowadays, gold nanoparticles have become the most prima choice for formulating active ingredients 18. In the synthesis of gold nanoparticles, various synthetic reducing agents such as sodium borohydrate, amino acids, CTAB (cetrimonium bromide), BDAC (Di-tertbutoxy-diacetoxysilane), ascorbic acid are extensively used. In this manuscript, we have made a thorough literature review on various plants, fungus, and algal sources that are used to stabilize and reduce the gold nanoparticle. This technique for using natural sources to develop gold nanoparticle increases the acceptability and lowers the adverse effects of the formulation, whereas the activity of the formulation will increase. This manuscript highlights the process of biosynthesis of gold nanoparticles obtained from green sources and mentions the activity profiles. On the other hand, the fact that nanoparticles reside in the nano range of particle size is correlated with greater absorption, biodistribution, and bioavailability with optimum therapeutic index for the active pharmaceutical ingredients. In the previous successful experiments, it was observed that when the essence of gold and technology of nano formulation were triturated in a single malt, gold nanoparticle was developed, which metaphorically spreaded its fragrance in the field of drug discovery. In the synthesis of gold nanoparticle, reduction and stabilization were the most important factors wherein various natural objects such as plants, fungi, algae were used as reducing and stabilizing agents. In this article, we have emphasized on the green synthesized gold nanoparticle and their corresponding activities.
