ABSTRACT:
Generally, synthesis and encapsulation process improve therapeutic value of nano encapsulated drugs. The silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) biosynthesized from Ziziphus nummularia leaves and encapsulated with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) polymer as antibacterial agents, due to its high bioavailability, better encapsulation and less toxic properties. The nanoparticles (AgNPs) biosynthesized from Ziziphus nummularia leaves and capped with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) polymer, The acquired AgNPs and polymeric functionalized AgNPs were fully characterised by the UV- Visible spectroscopy , Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-Ray diffraction pattern (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).The crystalline Ag NPs and Polymer Functionalized AgNPs have a face-centered cubic structure with an average size of 9.20 nm, according to X-ray Diffraction spectroscopy. Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy revealed that biomolecules such as proteins are incapable of reducing metal ions and the formation of an encapsulating layer in terms of metal ions. High-Resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed that Polymer functionalized AgNPs ranged in size of 10 nm. AgNPs and Polymer functionalized AgNPs showed effective antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. The biosynthesized monodisperse silver nanoparticles and encapsulated silver nanoparticles demonstrated better antimicrobial and antioxidant activity which can be used in various biomedical applications.
