Antimicrobial activities of gold and silver nanoparticles against Vibrio cholera
Journal Title: International journal of Advanced Biological and Biomedical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Vibrio cholerae is a human pathogen that causes mild to severe diarrheal illnesses and has major public health significance. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of antimicrobial activity of the gold nanoparticles on Vibrio cholera. Gold and Silver nanoparticles are chemically synthesized. Standard strain of Vibrio cholerawas cultured in a nutrient broth. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was determined by micro dilution.
