Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was synthesized from Urtica dioica (UDANP) and Lavandula angustifolia (LAANP) plants. Silver nanoparticles obtained from green synthesis were characterized by UV-Vis, FTIR, SEM, TEM. The DPPH scavenging activities of UDANP were found as 73.58, 84.61, 100, 100, and 100% at 12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/L, respectively. On the other hand, DPPH radical scavenging abilities of LAANP were determined as 62.56, 73.07, 78.71, 86.92, and 100% at 12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/L, respectively. The ferrous chelating activities of LAANP were found as 7.96, 17.59, 29.45, 41.63, and 59.44% at 12.5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/L, respectively. Besides UDANP was showed 73.58 and 84.61% metal chelating activity at 12.5 and 25 mg/L, respectively. The antimicrobial activity of UDANP and LAANP was performed using broth-dilution method. After the cell viability test of UDANP and LAANP, E. coli cell growth inhibited as 100%.
