Abstract

Through this study, we show the biological activities of commercially manufactured silver nanoparticles from US Research nano. (USA) and compared it with alcoholic leaf extract Ziziphus spina-christi (Sedr) against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis) and Gram-negative bacteria (Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aerginosa) The efficacy of ten antibiotics against these studied bacteria such as Ampicillin, Erythromycin, Azithromycin, Gentamicin, Vancomycin, Tetracycline, Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole, Ciprofloxacin, Chloramphenicol and Clindamycin was also evaluated. The results showed that the manufactured silver particles had inhibitory activity against S. aureus, E. faecalis, P. mirabilis and Ps. aerginosa is higher than the inhibitory activity of alcoholic leaf extract of Ziziphus spina-christi (Sedr).
