To evaluate the bactericidal, and cytotoxicity properties of silver nanoparticles synthesized from root extract of Asparagus racemosus. The physical properties of these nanoparticles were characterized by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), XRD and UVVis spectrophotometric analysis. The biochemical properties were assayed by antibacterial study, cytotoxicity assay using cancer cell line. The formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by UVVIS spectroscopic analysis which showed absorbance peak at 420 nm. X-ray diffraction photograph indicated the face centered cubic structure of the synthesized AgNPs. TEM has displayed the different dimensional images of biogenic silver nanoparticles with particle size distribution ranging from 3050 nm. Silver particles are spherical in shape. The EDX analysis was used to identify the elemental composition of synthesized AgNPs. Antibacterial activity of the synthesized AgNPs against three Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria strains like Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa carried out showed significant zones of inhibition. The cytotoxicity study by AgNPs also showed cytotoxicity on ovarian cancer cell line PA-1. The present study confirms that the AgNPs have great promise as antibacterial, and anticancer agent.
