Nanoparticles, with dimensions ranging from 10-9 meters, have gained attention due to their unique Physico-chemical properties. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are particularly attractive due to their optical, electrical, and antimicrobial properties, making them suitable for various industries such as biosensors, composite fibers, superconducting materials, medical imaging, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. AgNPs' antibacterial action is the most studied, offering new pharmaco therapeutic perspectives in the context of rising resistance to pathogenic bacteria. Green synthesis is more beneficial than traditional chemical synthesis due to its cost-effectiveness, reduced pollution, and improved environmental and human health safety. Tagetes erecta, also known as "marigold," is a popular plant known for its decorative qualities and carotenoids extraction. It has a rich history of use in traditional medicine, particularly in Mexico and South America, for curing various diseases. Microorganisms attack fiber only when the fiber is damp, and synthetic fibers repel microorganisms due to their high aquaphobicity. However, textiles contain cotton fiber, which can cause microbial growth, causing irritation and smell problems. To protect fabrics from bacterial growth, eco-friendly methods are needed, including medical garments, sanitary napkins, socks, underwear, disposable wipes, and carpets.
