Abstract
The lack of a viable vaccine and the emergence of novel Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) strains that are particularly resistant to treatments, presage a complicated future situation. Biosynthesized nanomaterials are currently proving to be a viable antibacterial therapeutic option, including for MTB infection treatment. The goal of this work is to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from Syzygium aromaticum seeds and investigate their antimicrobial, anti-tubercular, and cytotoxic properties using zebrafish embryos and Artemia salina. The UV spectrophotometer, SEM-EDAX, TEM and FTIR measurements were used to characterize the AgNPs. Antibacterial activity was performed against S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, E. coli and K. pneumoniae and exhibited potential inhibitory activity towards the bacterial cultures. The MABA assay was used to investigate the anti-mycobacterial activity, and the AgNPs showed the highest percentage of inhibition in both test concentrations (250 and 500 µg/ml).
期刊介绍:
Materials Technology: Advanced Performance Materials provides an international medium for the communication of progress in the field of functional materials (advanced materials in which composition, structure and surface are functionalised to confer specific, applications-oriented properties). The focus is on materials for biomedical, electronic, photonic and energy applications. Contributions should address the physical, chemical, or engineering sciences that underpin the design and application of these materials. The scientific and engineering aspects may include processing and structural characterisation from the micro- to nanoscale to achieve specific functionality.
