The need for more effective antimicrobial agent and propitious application of nanotechnology in therapeutics and diagnostics has prompted the research on ecofriendly synthesis of silver nanoparticles. The objective of present study was to investigate the antibacterial and antifungal activity of biologically synthesized silver nanoparticles. The silver nanoparticles were synthesized by extracellular method, using soil bacteria Kocuria rosea. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). On the basis of TEM analysis, the synthesized nanoparticles were found to be spherical with an average size of 30–50 nm. The biologically synthesized silver nanoparticles showed significant antimicrobial activity against pathogens.
