In recent years, the notorious importance of the study of nanomaterials has been appreciated. Nanotechnology is a relevant field that studies the synthesis, development and practical implementation of nanoparticles and nanomaterials, whose dimensions fall within the range of 1 to 100 nm. In this size range, the physical and biological properties change entirely concerning the features of the particles above this scale [1]. Among the wide variety of studies carried out in the area of synthesis, gold nanoparticles standout due to their catalytic properties and their ease of their obtainment by green methods [2]. Green synthesis employs antioxidant and surfactants biomolecules taken from the plant's extracts, which can be used for the nanoparticles synthesis, considering it as a novel and sustainable method. This method has been used mostly to synthesize gold and silver nanoparticles with suitable size and shape control [3].
