Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized usingAndrographis panniculata leaves extract and coated on pure cotton, polycotton and polyester fabrics using dip process, further AgNPs were characterized using UV visible spectra, XRD, EDAX and SEM. The nanostructure was confirmed by SEM. The average particle size was calculated by XRD and synthesized AgNPs with a face-centered cubic crystalline nature confirmed by XRD. The antibacterial potential of the AgNPs-coated fabrics were tested against the bacterial strain of S. aureus and E. coli, all the fabrics showing good antibacterial activity. By quantitative method, all the fabrics exhibited 99.99% inhibition against bacterial strains.
