Abstract
The trend towards synthesis of green, low cost, environmentally friendly and low toxic nano drug is increasing. The present study reported synthesis of phytocapped silver nanoparticles mediated by green synthesis method using Muraya koenigii leaf extract. The synthesized AgNPs wear confirmed by the electronic spectroscopy by UV Visible spectroscopy at 420nm along with crystalline nature by XRD analysis. TEM confirmed average size of 25-50 nm and TEM with globular shape architecture and showing defined elemental composition with representative mixture of plant and silver content by FTIR. Further AgNPs confirm better antibacterial activity against S. aureus, followed by E. coli. AgNPs recorded IC50 value for antioxidant recorded as 2.33 µg/ml. The present study confirmed the synthesis of multidimensional silver nanoparticle which can be utilized in medicinal field.
