Abstract: The plant Semecarpus anacardium is a well-known ayurvedic medicinal plant and is called as “Marking nut”. This has prompted the screening of this plant for anti-angiogenic activity. The main aim of this study was to isolate compounds from seeds and characterization of silver nanoparticles. According to previous studies, Semecarpus anacardium has been extensively investigated for the treatment of anticancer, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic properties of plant extracts. The nuts or seeds contain a variety of biologically active compounds such as bhilwanols, flavonoids, minerals, vitamins, and amino acids which shows various medicinal properties. The characterization of HMSNPs, HMSCNPs was done by using U.V, Zeta potential, X-ray diffraction technique, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanned Electron Microscope (SEM) parameters.
