  In the present study, antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles synthesized from stem of Tinospora cordifolia were analysed against multidrug-resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from burn patients. As Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a scourge of hospital burn units and its emergence as multidrug-resistant strains is a major problem in the control of nosocomial infections. Therefore, we tried to establish a combination of medicinal values of Tinospora cordifolia and nanotechnology possibly with the field of medicine for the development of antibacterial agents against these MDR strains.The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. Transmission Electron Microscopy and X-Ray Diffraction have revealed the size of silver nanoparticles 9 ±.. View More»
