issue of topical interest. While a number of chemical processes are energy intensive and involve toxic chemicals. Here we
report, at room temperature, bio-milling of chemically synthesized barium titinate (BaTiO3) particles by challenging the
fungus Saccharomyces cerevisiae against aqueous solution of BaTiO3 to synthesize the biogenic nanoparticles. The
extracellular breaking of microscaled BaTiO3 particles by extracellular biomolecules/proteins secreted by the fungus under
stressed condition results in the formation of particles in nanoregime. XRD spectra and TEM analysis showed that BaTiO3
particles reduce to their size during the interaction with the fungus Saccharomyces cerevisiae and maintaining their phase
and crystallinity after bio-milling process.1 aUddin, Imran1 aJaiswal, Adhish1 aPoddar, Pankaj  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/novel-green-bio-milling-technique-synthesis-batio3-nanoparticle-using-saccharomyces
