Description
Summary:Nanoparticles can be synthesized by various chemical, physical, or biological methods. Chemical and physical methods have certain drawbacks such as time consuming, high cost, high energy requirement, low yield and also produces hazardous chemicals which will be harmful to environment. Bio-synthesis seems a possible solution for the environment friendly synthesis of nanoparticles with enhances stability and clean synthesis technology to minimize environment and health associated risk. Bio nanotechnology encourages replacement of existing products with new environment friendly nano-products. Present study reports, the plant-based synthesis of magnesium nanoparticles with Syzygium aromaticum and their characterized with Dynamic Light scattering, Scanning Electron Microscope, UV-spectrophotometer and Fourier transfer infrared (FTIR). Bio-synthesized nanoparticles show promising antimicrobial activity against Gram + ve (Bacillus sphaericus, Bacillus subtilis) and Gram -ve bacteria (Escherichia coli) group of Microorganisms.
