• SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES AND THEIR POTENTIAL ANTI-MICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN Artanema fimbriatum
Abstract
The present study reports the synthesis of silver nanoparticle using Artanema fimbriatum leaf extract were used as reducing agent for reduction of silver nitrate solution. The synthesis of silver nanoparticles was analyzed by TECAN. The FTIR analysis has shown that size of silver nanoparticles synthesized from leaves extract of Artanema fimbriatum was 200 nm and seems to be spherical in morphology. Morphology of chemically synthesized silver nanoparticles is nearly spherical and of size ranges from 300-500nm. The average particle size analyzed from FTIR analysis eas observed to be 350 nm.This article has discussed the synthesis of silver nanoparticles generated from plant extract, characterization and antibacterial analysis. In this study the antibacterial activity was examined against 8 pathogenic bacteria cultures collected from (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Shigella, Bacillus, Serattia marcesens, Klebsilla, Psudomonas Aeruginosa). These microorganisms were obtained from the Department of microbiology, central leather research institute, Chennai. These antimicrobial activity of the silver nanoparticles showed maximum zone of inhibition. The silver nanoparticles synthesized using Artanema fimbriatum leaves extract would be a better antimicrobial effective against various bacterial species.
