Abstract:

This  work  demonstrates  the  use  of  a  new Ag-NPs synthesized from reduction method of silver nitrate,  for  efficient ability and activity against various pathogenic bacteria.  Here, this  research  is  done  in  with  the purpose  of  synthesizing  silver  nanoparticles while  studying  its antimicrobial  properties on Gram  positive  and Gram negative bacteria. Sodium borohydride has been used for the reduction and capping of silver nanoparticles. The reduction process of Ag+ to Ag0 was observed by the change of color from clear yellow to cloudy gray. In addition, the synthesized of Ag-NPs followed by the characterization of the silver nanoparticles using UV-Vis, XRD pattern and CFU have been calculated. Antimicrobial activity of Ag-NPs was done by well diffusion method against pathogenic organism like Salmonella typhi. Finally, the optimum temperature has also determined which was 40°C. This work confirms that Ag-NPs have the antimicrobial efficacy.
