In this present study, biosynthesis of AgNp’s from methanolic extracts of H. Colorata and its wound healing activity was documented. The synthesis of AgNp’s was done by treating AgNO3 solution with an aqueous extract of H. colorata. The production of AgNp’s was confirmed by a color change of the solution from clear to brown color. The reduced AgNp’s were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), UV–vis spectroscopy. From UV analysis peak was observed at 415nm and spherical shaped AgNp’s were observed. The antibacterial activity and Minimum inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the silver nanoparticles were determined. The results suggest that biosynthesized AgNp’s from aqueous extracts ofH.coloratashowed a significant antibacterial activity against wound pathogens.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
