Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been shown to be able to inhibit bacterial growth while presenting a negligible threat to the development of bacterial resistance and the toxicity of conventional silver compounds to human cells. Various concentrations of R. graveolens MetOH extract, both by itself and in combination with AgNPs made by Aspergillus flavus, were tested against several clinical isolates of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in the current study using disc diffusion methods an
