Abstract :
The biosynthesis of nanoparticles has been
proposed as an environmentally responsible and costeffective alternative to chemical and physical approaches.
In the current investigation, Pithecellobium dulce bark
extract was used to synthesis silver nanoparticles. The
bark extract has the ability to stabilise and reduce silver
nitrate. UV-visible spectrometer, FT-IR spectroscopy,
XRD analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM)
were used to characterise the synthesised silver oxide
nanoparticles catalytic activity in reducing p-nitrophenol
(4-NP) to p-aminophenol (4-AP) was examined. The
antibacterial activity against gram-positive and gramnegative was found.
