Abstract:Despite developing a broad spectrum of antibiotics, pathogenic bacteria remain the primary health concern. The emergence of drug-resistant strains increased therapeutic failure and mortality. The researchers are currently focusing on developing nanotechnology-based medicines to combat resistance. Our study focuses on the antimicrobial characteristics of plant-mediated silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The AgNPs were green synthesized (using thermal treatment) to reduce silver nitrate solution (AgNO3) using Semper… Show more
