Nanopartikel perak telah berhasil dibuat dengan menggunakan metode biosintesis yang memanfaatkan air rebusan rimpang sebagai agen pereduksi. Nanopartikel perak telah dikarakterisasi dengan menggunakan spektrophotometer UV Visible sehingga menghasilkan karakterisasi yang unik dari larutan nanopartikel perak. Ukuran nanopartikel perak yang didapatkan berkisar antara 50-60 nm. Metode kolorimetri telah diterapkan dalam mengaplikasikan nanopartikel perak sehingga dapat mendeteksi pestisida dithane pada konsentrasi 500 ppm dalam waktu deteksi tiga hari setelah pencampuran AgNO3 dengan air rebusan Jahe.

SilverNanoparticles is silver with a particle size in the range of interval1- 100nm. Silver nanoparticles can be obtained from a top-down process (Physics) and bottom-up (chemical and biological) process. Silver nanoparticle research developments related to recently find the right method that can be used to obtain nano silver particles with a size that is using green methods syntesis or so-called biosynthesis due to its superiority compared to the method of physics and chemistry. Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles utilizing biologicalbeings as reduction agents in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles. Silver nanoparticles have been successfully prepared by using a method of biosynthesis use the cooking water gingeras a reducing agent. Silver nanoparticles were characterized using UV-Visible spectrophotometer resulting in a unique characterization of silver nanoparticle solution. Size of the silver nanoparticles obtained between ranged50-60 nm. Colorimetric method has been applied in the application of silver nanoparticles that can detect pesticides Dithane at a concentration of 500 ppm detection within three days after mixing AgNO3 with Ginger boiled water.
