The present study is devoted to construction of new antibacterial and anti-fungal agent based on combination of in situ synthesized silver nanoparticles with plants extract, while through a green synthesis Ag-NPs were synthesized at room temperature using Rosmarinus officinalis leaf extract. In this study, hydroalcoholic extracts have been used for with Ultrasonic method. Ultrasonication has recently received attention as a novel bioprocessing tool for process intensification in many areas of downstream processing. Antimicrobial activities of T. daenensis and S. marianum extracts in the presence and absence of Ag-NPs was investigated at concentrations between 12.5-50 mg/mL against Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive organisms), Escherichia coli (Gram-negative organisms), and fungal strains were Aspergillus oryzae, Candida albicans. Antimicrobial activity determined using agar disc di.. View More»
