- The present study was performed for the one pot green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) at room-temperature using the leaf extract Mukia scabrella. AuNPs were characterized with different spectroscopy techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), Fourier Transform Infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR), and Energy dispersive X-ray (EDAX) spectroscopy SEM analysis presented that synthesized particles were predominantly round in shape with a size range of 30- 50 nm. Zeta potential analysis showed - 32.2 mV characteristic for stable AuNPs. Antimicrobial activity results presented that synthesized AuNPs have potent antimicrobial activity against gram negative bacteria. The results suggested that M.scabrella could be used for the synthesis of gold based nano drug against bacterial pathogens.
