Abstract :
We consider of the antimicrobial activity on the Ag-nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) aqueous solutions, which was prepared using a stabilizer, such as poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP (, for Staphylococcus aureus) S. aureus (and Escherichia coli )E.coli (by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration )MIC(. Antimicrobial effect of Ag-NPs for S. aureus and E. coli was investigated using disk diffusion method. Also, the Ag-NPs did show the antimicrobial activity for the test organisms. Antibacterial activity of Ag-NPs was found to be dependent on the shape of bacteries.
