“…Previous reports stated that, the silver nanoparticles have potential antibacterial property against E. coli, S. aureus, Staphylococcus epidermis, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella mobilis and K. pneumonia (Benn and Westerhoff 2008;Chen and Chiang 2008;Falletta et al 2008;Hernandez-Sierra et al 2008;Ingle et al 2008;Jung et al 2009;Kim 2007;Kim et al 2007Kim et al , 2009Kvitek et al 2008;Raffi et al 2008;Ruparelia et al 2008;Smetana et al 2008;Sondi and Salopek-Sondi 2004;Vertelov et al 2008;Yang et al 2009;Yoon et al 2008a, b). It has been shown that silver nanoparticles prepared with a variety of synthetic methods have effective antimicrobial activity (Lok et al 2006;Baker et al 2005;Aymonier et al 2002;Melaiye et al 2005;Sondi and Salopek-Sondi 2004;Kim et al 2008;Lee et al 2008;Alt et al 2004).…”

The silver nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction method and the nanoparticles were characterized using ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) absorption spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were investigated to evaluate the antibacterial activity against urinary tract infectious (UTIs) bacterial pathogens. Thirty-two bacteria were isolated from mid urine samples of 25 male and 25 female patients from Thondi, Ramanathapuram District, Tamil Nadu, India and identified by conventional methods. Escherichia coli was predominant (47%) followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (22%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (19%), Enterobacter sp. (6%), Proteus morganii (3%) and Staphylococcus aureus (3%). The antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles was evaluated by disc diffusion assay. P. aeruginosa showed maximum sensitivity (11 ± 0.58 mm) followed by Enterobacter sp. (8 ± 0.49 mm) at a concentration of 20 lg disc -1 and the sensitivity was highly comparable with the positive control kanamycin and tetracycline. K. pneumoniae, E. coli, P. morganii and S. aureus showed no sensitivity against all the tested concentrations of silver nanoparticles. The results provided evidence that, the silver nanoparticles might indeed be the potential sources to treat urinary tract infections caused by P. aeruginosa and Enterobacter sp.

Nanoparticle technology is rapidly advancing and is used for a wide range of applications in medicine. The potential of metal nanoparticles as antimicrobial agents is widely studied and is considered as an alternative approach to overcome the challenge posed by multidrug resistance in bacteria. This review discusses novel approaches to nanoparticle synthesis including green synthesis and the antimicrobial spectrum of nanoparticles. Approaches for enhancing antimicrobial potential of nanoparticles by surface modification and its potential as a vehicle for antibiotic delivery are also explored.

In this accomplishment, zinc oxide nanoparticles were make-believe by hail make advances reason zinc acetate as a precursor. The explicit display, morphology of pretended ZnO nanoparticles were pragmatic using burn the midnight oil X-ray diffraction (XRD), AFM (Atomic underline microscope) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and their optical properties characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy. XRD niggardly simple turn the intended ZnO duplicate is highly crystalline, having wurtzite crystal structure.AFM tight-fisted essential ramble the fitted ZnO sample is of high purity. UV-Vis absorption sweep showed a regular field for ZnO nanoparticles and exertion chasm explicit close to the typical energy gap of ZnO nanoparticles.The SEM get the hang shows range ZnO nanoparticles designed in this scrutinize are spherical in shape with a smooth rise. The surface rudeness inquiry need TR220 unambiguous acceptable results of prepared ZnO/ polystyrene samples.
