To improve biosensors performance, the working electrodes used in biosensor design are modified by using different materials such as carbon dots, silver nanoparticles, conductive polymers etc. Environmentally friendly production of these materials is important for a sustainable environment. In this study, the use of environmentally friendly silver nanoparticles in electrode modification was determined. For this purpose, research and review articles indexed by the Science Citation Expanded Index (SCI-EXP) and Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) in the Web of Science (WOS) database were searched using the keywords "green synthesis*" and "biosensor*" and "silver nanoparticle*". A total of 276 articles containing these three keywords in title, abstract, and author keywords were identified. The data of the articles were saved as Bibtex files and analyzed using R-programmer, Bibliometric R-package (Biblioshiny tool). India (n=387) was determined as the country with the highest number of studies on this subject. Keywords related to silver nanoparticles (n=175), green synthesis (n=191), nanoparticles (n=81), and biosensors (n=72) were prominent in the word cloud. Although the studies have increased since 2010, it was seen that the use of environmentally friendly silver nanoparticles in biosensor design was limited. It was clear that it is important to increase these studies for a sustainable environment.
