Characterization of Ag nanoparticles produced by white-rot fungi and its in vitro antimicrobial activities

Biosynthesis of Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) with diameter ranging 50 to 80 nm is achieved using the white-rot fungi, Schizophyllum commune and Pycnoporus sanguineus. AgNPs were formed when the fungal mycelia and the supernatant reacted with AgNO3 after 5 days of incubation period. The synthesized na...
