Abstract:

Silver nanoparticles with size of 6- 57nm were synthesized by bioreduction method from Anisochilus carnosus aqueous and ethanolic extract. Biosynthesized nanoparticles showed maximum antimicrobial activity against K. pneumonia (13±1.67mm), E.coli (13±1.97mm) and B. subtilis (13±1.07mm) followed by P. aeruginosa and minimum against S. aureus. The quantitative formation, characteristics and impurities of silver nanoparticles were studied using UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, EDX spectrum, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. Based on this investigation these silver nanoparticles may be used in effluent treatment process for reducing the microbial load.

Antimicrobial activity of cream incorporated with silver nanoparticles biosynthesized from Withania somnifera

We report on the antimicrobial activity of a cream formulation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), biosynthesized using Withania somnifera extract. Aqueous extracts of leaves promoted efficient green synthesis of AgNPs compared to fruits and root extracts of W. somnifera. Biosynthesized AgNPs were characterized for their size and shape by physical-chemical techniques such as UV-visible spectroscop...
