Abstract

The green-synthesized method is rapid, superficial, toxic free, suitable, less time consuming, environmental safe and can be applied in a variety of applications in medicinal field. In the present study demonstrated antibacterial action of Vinca rosea Leaf extract medicated Silver Nanoparticles (VrL-AgNPs) tested against both Gram positive and Gram negative pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherchia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The obtained results indicate the VrL-AgNPs achieved maximum zone of inhibition against test pathogens P. aeruginosa and significant action against E.coli and S. aureus. These green routes synthesized silver nanoparticles using biological sources like plant and plant extract which makes them a potent source of antibacterial agent.
