Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles using Ajuga parviflora Benth and Digera muricata Leaf extract: Their Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity

Abstract:

The aim of the present study is to search out nontoxic silver nanoparticles synthesized from the leaf extract of two plants Ajuga parviflora Benth and Digera muricata for antimicrobial activity. The plants used in this investigation are rich in alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, terpenoids, protein, amino acids, carbohydrate, quninones, phenols and tannins. The formation of nanoparticles were confirmed by UV/Visible spectroscopy, peaks at 423nm for Ajuga parviflora Benth and 408nm for Digera muricata. The morphology of the silver nanoparticles was established through state of the art spectroscopic tools. SEM analysis reveals average size of AgNPs 18 nm for Digera muricata and 22 nm for Ajuga parviflora Benth respectively while transmission electron microscopy confirms that AgNPs are spherical in shape. The synthesized nanoparticles were subjected to Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhimurium and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The results suggest that the silver nanoparticles have promising activity against all the bacterial strains and can be used an effective bactericides.
