Abstract:The present study focused on biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from an endophytic fungus isolated from the medicinal plant Abrus precatorius. The endophytic fungus was identified as Phyllosticta owaniana KUMBMDBT-32 (NCBI Accession number MW007919). The fungus was cultured in submerged fermentation and extracted with ethyl acetate (1:1 V/V). The extract was subjected to GC-MS analysis which have revealed the presence of 42 bioactive compounds of secondary metabolites. Synthesized silver nanoparticles were c… Show more
