Green synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) is a major developing field. In this study, we utilised Whitania somnifera leaves as a green source to synthesise platinum (Pt) NPs. Synthesised Pt NPs resulted from controlled synthesis of 12 nm spherical particles. The synthesised Pt NPs were subjected to anti-diabetic applications resulting in a significant decrease in plasma glucose levels after injecting the Pt NPs into streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
