摘要

In the present study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using a plant leaf extract, and their antibacterial potential against multidrug-resistant (MDR) poultry bacterial strains and a wide range of pathogens was evaluated. Their anti-inflammatory activity was also investigated. The aqueous leaf extract of Crotalaria pallida (Cp) was used to synthesize Cp-AgNPs. The synthesized AgNPs were confirmed by UV–Vis, XRD, FTIR, SEM, EDX, and TEM analyses. They have spherical shapes with an average particle size of 21.3 ± 12.5 nm. Cp-AgNPs were tested for their antibacterial activity against MDR bacteria, E. coli, and K. pneumoniae, isolated from poultry farms in Bangladesh, showing inhibition rates of 49.40 at 300 and 50.99% at 400 µg/mL, respectively. Additionally, Cp-AgNPs demonstrated strong antibacterial effects against a broad spectrum of pathogenic bacteria. They also showed anti-inflammatory potential. This highlights the multifunctional potential of AgNPs for developing new metal nanomaterials for biomedical applications.
