Bacopa monnieri, Silver nanoparticles, Uv-Vis Characterization, Antioxidant activity, Antimicrobial activityAbstract
Bacopa monnieri, also referred to as Herpestis monnieri, water hyssop, and “Brahmi” has been used in the Ayurvedic system of medicine for centuries. The silver nanoparticles are most commonly used for sterilizing in consumer and medical products include fabrics, food storage bags, refrigerator surfaces and personal care products. This study explores the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using B. monnieri. The biosynthesized Ag-NPs were characterized using UV-Vis-spectrophotometer and the antioxidant ability of AgNPs mediated B. monnieri extract was analyzed using DPPH and Hydrogen peroxide assay. The percentage of DPPH and H2O2 activity increased with increasing concentration of AgNPs, The AgNPs mediated leaves extract of B. monnieri was performed for the determination of anti-inflammatory activity and antimicrobial activity. Aeromonas sp., Bacillus cereus, Brevibacillus parabrevis, Enterococcus pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella sp., Staphylococcus aureus, Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. nidulans, Penicillum funiculosum, A. fumigatus, Trichoderma harzianum, A. terreus and A. candidus were selected for the antimicrobial activity of
silver nanoparticles. The maximum zone of inhibition was found against E. coli and A. candidus at 80 μl concentration. This study concluded that silver nanoparticles have a significant potential as an antimicrobial compound against the pathogenic microorganisms studied and can be used to treat infectious diseases caused by
bacteria. Silver nanoparticles have a major role on nanotechnology and nanomedicine.
