Abstract
A Comparative Study of Plant Mediated Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles from Fresh Leaf Extracts of Gracina Gummi-Gutta L., Cynodon Dactylon L. and Bauhinia Acuminata and Their Antimicrobial Activity Studies
Highlights
Metallic nanomaterials have the potential ability to alter and improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmaco dynamic properties of various types of drug molecules
On the other hand it is seen that the plant extracts, being safer to handle and a source of several metabolites [3], are eco-friendly, economical and cost effective for synthesis of large scale of nanoparticles compared to the other biological synthesis methods using fungi or microbial cultures [4,5]
In this investigation we present a comparative study of the rapid green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) from green extracts of Bauhinia acuminata, Cynodon dactylon and Gracinia gummi-gutta L. and their characterisation and their inhibitory effects against Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria
Summary
Metallic nanomaterials have the potential ability to alter and improve the pharmacokinetic and pharmaco dynamic properties of various types of drug molecules. [16], Catharanthusroseus [17], Stigmaphyllonlittorale [18], etc In this investigation we present a comparative study of the rapid green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) from green extracts of Bauhinia acuminata, Cynodon dactylon and Gracinia gummi-gutta L. and their characterisation and their inhibitory effects against Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria. Bauhinia acuminata (Fabaceae family, sub family - Caesalpinioideae) is a semi-deciduous large shrub with white butterfly like flowers [19] This species occurs widely in deciduous forests and scrub. Garcinia cambogia or Garcinia gummi-gutta L (Clusiaceae family) [22] is a tropical species native to Indonesia This plant is grown for its fruit which looks like a small pumkin in Southeast Asia, coastal Karnataka/ Kerala, India, and west and central Africa. The extract and rind of G. gummi-gutta is a curry condiment in India especially for its sour flavors and is purported as a potential antiobesity agent
