Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Cassine glauca bark extract and its antibacterial activity
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RECENT TRENDS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2016, Vol 20, Issue 2
Abstract
Nanotechnology is a field that is burgeoning day by day making an impact in all spheres of human life. Eco friendly methods of green mediated synthesis of nanoparticles are the present research in the limb of nanotechnology.The present work leads to the synthesis of nanoparticles from 1mM AgNo3 solution through aqueous bark extract of Cassine glauca as reducing as well as capping agent. Synthesised nanoparticles are characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy, Energy dispersive X-ray analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Green synthesized silver nano particle and aqueous extract of plant showed zone of inhibition against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aurous species of bacteria and Candida albicans fungi specie.
