A high determination coefficient R2 of 99.3% was obtained. Structural characterization by UV-vis, TEM, XRD and FTIR revealed the formation of spherical nanoparticles. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.BiochemistryBiological materialsBiomaterialsBiosynthesisFungiMathematical modelsNanoparticlesDetermination coefficientsEndophytic fungiFTIRFusarium solaniResponse surface methodologySilver nanoparticlesSpherical nanoparticlesStructural characterizationSilverBiosynthesis and optimization of silver nanoparticles by endophytic fungus Fusarium solani
