Mycosynthesized AgNPs Bactericidal Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bactericidal activity of mycosynthesized silver nanoparticles was evaluated against Escherichia coli (MTCC 7410), Salmonella typhi (MTCC 733), Bacillus subtilis (MTCC 121) and Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 7443) and all test pathogens were procured from Microbial Type Culture Collection, Chandigarh, India. Inoculum of test pathogens was prepared to obtain 5 × 105 CFU (Colony forming unit) and bactericidal activity was determined via CFU assay. In brief, Mueller–Hinton agar plates were supplemented with silver nanoparticles with different concentrations (25, 50, 75 and 100 μg/mL). Test inoculum was smeared onto the plates and incubated for 24 h at 37 °C and one control was maintained without addition of silver nanoparticles. The colonies were counted and validated with the control plate to determine the effect of nanoparticles (Sondi and Salopek-Sondi, 2004 ). Minimal Inhibitory Concentration was determined by broth micro-dilution technique based on the protocol described by Sarker et al. (2007) (link). Resazurin dye was used as a growth indicator to check the efficacy of nanoparticles against the test organisms. Gentamicin was used as positive control and bacterial growth in the plate was inspected visually as well as ELISA microtitre plate reader.

Antibacterial Activity of Silver Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Silver nanoparticles synthesised using aqueous extract of P. foetida were tested for its potential antibacterial activity against a few bacterial pathogens such as E. coli (MTCC 1698), Klebsiella pneumoniae(MTCC 10309), Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 3160) and Bacillus cereus(MTCC 430) purchased from Microbial Type culture collection, IMTECH,Chandigarh. Agar Well diffusion assay method was followed, which involved the swabbing of 18 hours test inoculums in pre-sterilised nutrient agar plates. Wells were created, and each well was loaded with 100 µl of the solutions in the following order: water as control, aqueous extract of P. foetida, silver nitrate solution and silver nanoparticle solution. To test the synergy of silver nanoparticles and antibiotic, tetracycline discs and tetracycline discs loaded with silver nanoparticles were utilized.Then the sample loaded Mueller Hinton agar plates were incubated at 37 0 C for 24 hrs. Then the formation of a zone of inhibition was observed (Ibrahim, 2015) (link).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
