In present study, the silver nanoparticles were synthesized using endophytic fungi Aspergillus terreus, isolated from Calotropis procera. Synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using various spectroscopic techniques. The nanoparticles were reported oval to spherical in shape. The average size of silver nanoparticles was 16.54 nm. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of Aspergillus terreus showed the presence of 17 compounds. The synthesized silver nanoparticles showed considerable antibacterial activity against tested bacterial strains: 9 American type culture collection reference (ATCC) and 3 multidrug resistance (MDR) strains. Synthesized nanoparticles showed significant antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi (16.67 ± 0.58 mm), Staphylococcus aureus (15.67 ± 0.58 mm), and Escherichia coli (15.67 ± 0.58 mm).
