“…4. The AgNPs obtained from the solution was refined by continual centrifugation at 10,000 rotations per minute for 15 min using Remi cooling centrifuge C-24 (Karuppiah and Rajmohan 2013). The obtained residual portion (AgNPs) was cleaned using distilled water then dried and stored for further analysis.…”

In the present work, AgNPs were prepared using a simple bio-reduction method. This is ecologically welcoming and cost-effective method. Yellow colored blooms concentrate of Argemone mexicana and Turnera ulmifolia are used as bio reducing agents in the study. The formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by UV-Vis spectrophotometer and characterization of the nanoparticles was done by FTIR, SEM, XRD and EDX. The Antibacterial action of silver nanoparticles was tested against Staphylococus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella aerogenes. The phytochemical analysis of the blooms concentrate has shown the existence of saponins, alkaloids, amino acids, phenols, tannins, terpenoids, flavonoids and cardiac glycosides. In vitro anti-oxidant action of both A. mexicana and T. ulmifolia AgNPs were studied by DPPH assay and reducing power assay.

“…1 Metal nanoparticles like silver, gold, and copper have been used for diagnosis and treatment of disease because of their catalytic, optical, electronic, antimicrobial, and magnetic properties. 2 Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are generally synthesized by physical and chemical methods such as electrochemical reduction and thermal evaporation, [3][4][5] but these methods are time-consuming and difficult to scale up.…”

We report on the antimicrobial activity of a cream formulation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), biosynthesized using Withania somnifera extract. Aqueous extracts of leaves promoted efficient green synthesis of AgNPs compared to fruits and root extracts of W. somnifera . Biosynthesized AgNPs were characterized for their size and shape by physical-chemical techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, laser Doppler anemometry, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy. After confirming the antimicrobial potential of AgNPs, they were incorporated into a cream. Cream formulations of AgNPs and AgNO 3 were prepared and compared for their antimicrobial activity against human pathogens ( Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus vulgaris, Escherichia coli , and Candida albicans ) and a plant pathogen ( Agrobacterium tumefaciens ). Our results show that AgNP creams possess significantly higher antimicrobial activity against the tested organisms.

“…The intensity data for the lyophilized nano silver powder were collected in the 2y range 20-801 and the scanning speed at 0.02 min per degree. The green filter of AgNPs was documented by JASCOFTIR spectrophotometer using KBr pellet in the range of 400 -4000cm_1 with the spectra resolution of 4cm_1 [17].…”
