Prasad Anal K. Jha A. R. Kulkarni Received 9 April 2007 Accepted 17 April 2007 Published online 19 May 2007 to the authors 2007 Abstract An eco-friendly lactobacillus sp. microbe assisted synthesis of titanium nanoparticles is reported. The synthesis is performed at room temperature. X-ray and transmission electron microscopy analyses are performed to ascertain the formation of Ti nanoparticles. Individual nanoparticles as well as a number of aggregates almost spherical in shape having a size of 40-60 nm are found. Keywords Nano titanium Nanoparticles Lactobacillus sp. Eco-friendly Introduction In recent years materials with nano-sized dimension have attracted considerable attention of the researchers throughout the globe. In modern nano science and technology the interaction between inorganic nanoparticles and biological structures are one of the most exciting areas of research. Also taking into consideration the environmental health and social aspects there is a need to develop an eco-friendly approach for nanomaterials synthesis that should not use toxic chemicals in the synthesis protocol.
