I have synthesized Ag nanoparticles using a green route [salt: plant extract = 9:1 and added 100 microlitres of starch solution (100mg starch dissolved in 1 ml distilled water) to it]. I had heated the mixture for an hour at 80 degrees centigrade. After recovering the nanoparticles by centrifuging the silver colloid and drying the precipitate, I tried resuspending them in distilled water (10 ml of water added to 1 mg of nanoparticles) by ultrasonication for 10 minutes at 270 Volt. The nanoparticles are settling at the bottom of the container which is the problem.
