TI  - Pulicaria glutinosa extract: a toolbox to synthesize highly reduced graphene 
      oxide-silver nanocomposites.

AB  - A green, one-step approach for the preparation of graphene/Ag nanocomposites 
      (PE-HRG-Ag) via simultaneous reduction of both graphene oxide (GRO) and silver 
      ions using Pulicaria glutinosa plant extract (PE) as reducing agent is reported. 
      The plant extract functionalizes the surfaces of highly reduced graphene oxide 
      (HRG) which helps in conjugating the Ag NPs to HRG. Increasing amounts of Ag 
      precursor enhanced the density of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) on HRG. The preparation 
      of PE-HRG-Ag nanocomposite is monitored by using ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) 
      spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). 
      The as-prepared PE-HRG-Ag nanocomposities display excellent surface-enhanced 
      Raman scattering (SERS) activity, and significantly increased the intensities of 
      the Raman signal of graphene.
