Abstract

In this work, a cost-effective/green/high-efficient/facile process for the preparation of silver nanoparticles using C. pentagyna (CP-AgNPs) fruit extractas as reducing agent and capping agent was reported. The influence of different parameters including temperature, pH, concentration and time were studied to reach optimum conditions. The as-synthesized CP-AgNPs were characterized using UV/Vis, XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS and DLS analysis. Regular, spherical morphology and homogeneous of CP-AgNPs with a mean particles size of 25-45 nm was determined from TEM images. The CP-AgNPs in presence of sunlight catalyzed the degradation of the organic contaminant dyes, rhodmine b (RhB), eosin (EY) and methylene blue (MB) with percent degradation of 85% and 70% and 78%, respectively. In addition, CP-AgNPs exhibit antibacterial activities against seven ATCC strains of bacteria and eight strains of drug-resistant bacteria. Due to the results, CP-AgNPs enhanced antimicrobial potential against S. aureus, E. faecalis, P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii and E. coli with MIC and MBC of (0.11, 7.1 mu g/ ml), (0.11, 1.7 mu g/ml), (0.11, 0.22 mu g/ml), (0.11, 0.22) and (0.11, 0.44 mu g/ml), respectively. Generally, CP-AgNPs have excellent potential application for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutant and in the development of antibacterial materials.
