Abstract

The nanotechnology develops well in the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from the plants and microorganisms. Recently, silver nanoparticles were used against of disease management and its control measures. Various plants and its extract were used to synthesis of silver nanoparticles and these particles were identified by some advance techniques such as ultraviolet analysis, high-performance liquid chromatography analysis, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. These techniques were used for shape, size, and character analysis of the silver nanoparticles. In this work, silver nanoparticles were used to identify its potential antimicrobial against of urinary tract infection (UTI) pathogens which are produced extended-spectrum beta-lactamases. Both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria will produce the UTI and in this work Klebsiella sp. used.
