Bio- Synthesis Of Silver Nanoparticles From Leaf Extracts Of Martynia Annua L. And Its Antimicrobial Activity.
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
In the present study Silver nanoparticles were synthesized from aqueous leafs extract of Martynia annua L . and characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) , X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X(EDX).Characterization by the above said instrument analysis confirmed the presence, size and stability of silver nanoparticles.After characterization, the silver nanoparticles were tested at 100µg-ml,200µg-ml,300µg-ml and 400µg-ml concentrations to check the bactericidal activity against clinical isolates of five bacterial pathogens. We observed that, if the concentration of leaf extracts synthesized nanoparticle increases, the zone of inhibition also get increased in all the test five clinical bacterial pathogens against streptomycin and result suggested the potential use of leaf extracts synthesized silver nanoparticles against other clinical pathogens.
