Abstract
were observed to exhibit high antimicrobial response (zones of inhibition ranging between 22 mm to 28 mm), thus confirming that these were bestowed with potent antimicrobial ability. Hence, from the present work, it could be concluded that Bryophyllum- ZnO nanoparticles can be used as potential nanoantibiotic sources to deal with UTIs.
