Extracellular Biosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles by Endophytic Fungus Aspergillus terreus and its Anti-dermatophytic Activity
نویسندگان
چکیده
The emerging of nanoparticles into the living system especially for medical purposes has opened up a new challenge of synthesizing them in a benign fashion. In the present study, 5 endophytic fungi were isolated from the mangrove leaves of Rhizophora annamalayanna and among that A. terreus was produced the AgNPs extracellularly and the presence of AgNPs was confirmed by XRD, SEM with EDX, TEM and FTIR. Crystalline nature of AgNPs observed in XRD. SEM with EDX and TEM confirmed the presence of AgNPs, reveals that are predominantly spherical in the size of 100nm. FT-IR analysis confirmed the presence of proteins over the AgNPs which acts as a capping agent involved in the reduction of Ag to Ag
