Abstract: Low Cost silver nanoparticles were prepared by using the leaf extract of Azadirachta indica, Ocimum sanctum, which served as reducing agents. The quantitative formation of nanoparticles was observed by using a UV-Visible spectrophotometer. This study also compares the formation of Ag nanoparticles prepared by fresh and dry leaves of Neem and Tulsi. The confirmation of formation of Ag NPs done using UV spectrum. This spectrum lies in a range between 350 nm to 450 nm for both fresh and dry leaves of Neem. The antimicrobial activity of AgNPs prepared from fresh and dry leaves of Tulsi was found to be higher compared to that of Neem leaves. They demonstrated effectiveness against organisms such as Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, etc.
Keywords: Silver Nanoparticles, Azadirachta Indica, Ocimum Santum, Absorption, Antimicrobia Property.
