Popis: | Bio-production of silver nanoparticles using plant biomolecules that possess potential applications is receiving much attention in current period. In the current research, Ag-NPs are synthesized using resin of Atalantia monophylla (L). The spectral and imaginable characters are analyzed using UV–vis spectrophotometer, Electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The resin-mediated silver nanoparticles are sphere-shaped as proved by scanning electron microscope image. The approximate estimation of reducing possibilities of the resin of Atalantia monophylla (L) plant indicated the existence of carbohydrates, phenols, alkaloids and protein. The synthesized Ag NPs reveal extensive antimicrobial activity against human bacterial pathogens viz., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter sp., and Staphylococcus aureus. |
