AIMS:To evaluate the antibacterial activity of Artocarpus hirsutus mediated seed extract for nanoparticle synthesis.
BACKGROUND:Gastrointestinal bacteria are known for causing deadly infections in humans. They also possess multi-drug resistance and interfere with clinical treatments. Applied nanotechnology has been known to combat such infectious agents with little interference from their special attributes. Here we synthesize silver nanoparticles from Artocarpus hirsutus seed extract against two gastro-intestinal bacterial species: Enterobacter aerogenes and Listeria monocytogenes.
OBJECTIVE:To collect, dry, and process seeds of Artocarpus hirsutus for nanoparticle synthesis. To evaluate the morphological interaction of silver nanoparticles with bacteria.
METHODS:Artocarpus hirsutus seeds were collected and processed and further silver nanoparticles were synthesized by the co-precipitation method. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using XRD, UV, FTIR, and SEM. These nanoparticles were employed to study the antibacterial activity of nanoparticles against Enterobacter aerogenes and Listeria monocytogenes using well diffusion method. Further, morphological interaction of silver nanoparticles on bacteria was studied using SEM.
RESULTS:Silver nanoparticles were synthesized using Artocarpus hirsutus seed extract and characterization studies confirmed that silver nanoparticles were spherical in shape with 25-40 nm size. Antibacterial study exhibited better activity against Enterobacter aerogenes with a maximum zone of inhibition than on Listeria monocytogenes. SEM micrographs indicated that Enterobacter aerogenes bacteria were more susceptible to silver nanoparticles due to the absence of cell wall. Also, the size and charge of silver nanoparticles enable easy penetration of the bacterial cell wall.
CONCLUSION:In this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized using the seed extract of Artocarpus hirsutus for the first time exploiting the fact that Moraceae species have high phytonutrient content which aided in nanoparticle synthesis. This nanoparticle can be employed for large scale synthesis which when coupled with the pharmaceutical industry can be used to overcome the problems associated with conventional antibiotics to treat gastrointestinal bacteria.

目的：评价面包果介导的种子提取物对纳米粒子合成的抗菌活性。
背景：胃肠道细菌导致人类致命的感染。它们还具有多药耐药性并干扰临床治疗。已知应用纳米技术可在不受其特殊属性干扰的情况下与此类传染源抗争。在这里，我们从面包果种子提取物中合成了针对两种胃肠道细菌的银纳米颗粒：产气肠杆菌和单核细胞增生李斯特菌。
目的：收集，干燥和加工面包果种子进行纳米颗粒合成。评估银纳米粒子与细菌的形态相互作用。
方法：收集和处理面包果种子，并通过共沉淀法合成银纳米颗粒。使用XRD，UV，FTIR和SEM对合成的纳米颗粒进行表征。这些纳米颗粒被用于通过良好扩散方法研究纳米颗粒对产气肠杆菌和单核细胞增生性李斯特菌的抗菌活性。此外，使用SEM研究了银纳米颗粒在细菌上的形态相互作用。
结果：利用面包果种子提取物合成了银纳米颗粒，表征研究证实银纳米颗粒为球形，尺寸为25-40 nm。抗菌研究显示，与单核细胞增生李斯特菌相比，对产气肠杆菌具有最大的抑制作用，具有更好的抑制作用。 SEM显微照片表明，由于不存在细胞壁，所以产气肠杆菌对银纳米颗粒更敏感。而且，银纳米颗粒的大小和电荷使细菌细胞壁易于渗透。
结论：在这项研究中，利用禾本科物种具有高植物营养素含量的事实，首次利用面包果种子提取物合成了银纳米颗粒。该纳米颗粒可用于大规模合成，当与制药工业结合使用时，可用于克服与常规抗生素相关的治疗胃肠道细菌的问题。
