Silver Nanoparticle Synthesis Using Monosaccharides and Their Growth Inhibitory Activity against Gram-Negative and Positive Bacteria
Figure 3
Growth inhibition of Gram-positive microbes by AgNPs synthesized using glucose. (a) Growth curves of S. epidermidis in LB medium inoculated with 107 CFU of bacteria in the presence of different concentration of AgNPs: (♦) 0 g/mL, (■) 10 g/mL, and (▲) 20 g/mL. (b) Growth curves of B. megaterium in LB medium inoculated with 107 CFU of bacteria in the presence of different concentrations of AgNPs: (♦) 0 g/mL, (■) 10 g/mL, and (▲) 20 g/mL.
