Synergistic antimicrobial action of phyco-synthesized silver nanoparticles and nano-fungal chitosan composites against drug resistant bacterial pathogens

Here we report the phycosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs), using Codium capitatum extract, and the synthesis of fungal chitosan nanoparticles (FC-NPs), using extracted chitosan from Aspergillus niger mycelia. Then nanoconjugates from FC/Ag-NPs were produced and evaluated. The synthesized NP...
