PHYCOSYNTHESIZED SILVER NANOPARTICLES AND THEIR ANTIBACTERIAL EFFECT

Sugandha Verma, Janendra Nath Srivastava

Abstract :

 Spirulina platensis plays a vital role as protein supplement and natural medicine due to its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The most efficient strain of Spirulina platensis was selected as CCC 477 suitable for biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles on the basis of reddish own colour of the AgNPs synthesized solution with their characteristic peak identified by UV–Vis Spectroscopy. Further charactererization regarding crystallanity, stability, morphology and size estimation was performed on the basis of XRD, FTIR, SEM and TEM analysis of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles. The antibacterial effect of Spirulina synthesized silver nanoparticles was examined against Gram positive as well as Gram negative pathogenic bacteria.
