Green rapid biogenic synthesis of bioactive silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The present work was focused on isolating a bacterial strain of Pseudomonas sp. with the ability to synthesise AgNPs rapidly. A strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa designated JO was found to be a potential candidate for rapid synthesis of AgNPs with a synthesis time of 4h in light, at room temperature which is a shorter time period noticed for the synthesis when compared to the previous reports Biosynthesis of AgNPs was achieved by addition of culture supernatant with aqueous silver nitrate solution (1 mM).
