Stable Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis by Citrus Sinensis (Orange) and Assessing Activiity Against Food Poisoning Microbes

Silver nanoparticles are considerecl as good antimicrobial agent. AgNPs were synthesized by mixing silver nitrate solution with citrus sinesb extract for 2 h at 37 and analyzed by UV-visible spectra, SEM, XRD, and FTIR. AgNPs were tested against B. subtilis, Shigello, S. oureus, ond E. coli. Minimum...

Summary:Silver nanoparticles are considerecl as good antimicrobial agent. AgNPs were synthesized by mixing silver nitrate solution with citrus sinesb extract for 2 h at 37 and analyzed by UV-visible spectra, SEM, XRD, and FTIR. AgNPs were tested against B. subtilis, Shigello, S. oureus, ond E. coli. Minimum inhibitory concentration of AgNPs was 20 I~g/mL for B. subtilis and Shigello and 30 I~g/mL for S. oureus and E. coll. Antibiofilm activity (80% to 90%) was observed at 25 IJg/mL. AgNPs were stable for five months with sustained an'timicrobial activity. Biosynthesized AgNPs can bE: used to inhibit food poisoning microbial growth.
