Antimicrobial activities of silver nanoparticles bio-synthesized from diatom Amphora sp.

A biological method was employed to synthesize silver nanoparticles through marine diatom Amphora sp. Antimicrobial efficacy test against different pathogenic bacteria were performed through synthesized silver nanoparticles. The physio-chemical properties of synthesized silver nanoparticles were stu...
