I am a fresh researcher and keen to know how using DW or deionized water effects the synthesis of AgNPs using plant extract. which solvent between these two is good to use and why?
Generally Distilled/ Double distilledwater is better as they won`t contain dissolved minerals and metals and patricularly it will not contain bio burden (i.e less CFU) and almost nil BET(biological endotoxins), whereas DM water or DI water can hold bio burden more and also dissolved minerals and metals are slightly higher in DI water when compared to distilled water.
