Antimicrobial Activity Of Momordica Charantia And Vaccinium Sect.Cyanococcus Formulation Mediated Hafnium Oxide Nanoparticles Against Oral Pathogens

Abstract

Objective The present research article describes the Herbal mediated synthesis of Hafnium Oxide nanoparticles for various therapeutic applications.It also elaborates the estimation of anti-microbial activity of herbal mediated synthesised  hafnium oxide nanoparticles.

Method A Herbal formulation made up of two plant extracts namely Vaccinium sect.Cyanococcus and Momordica Charantia was used in the synthesis of HfONPs.The produced HfONPs were tested for biomedical applications such as for estimation of Anti-microbial activity using Mueller hinton agar plates.

Result The Maximum zone of inhibition was found in C.Albicans species when compared to other oral pathogens.The zone of inhibition was 10 mm at 100μg/ml for C.Albicans whereas the zone of inhibition was 9 mm for other oral pathogens which was comparable to the standard I.e plant extract.

Conclusion The Herbal formulation mediated synthesis of HfONPs showed some positive outcomes both in anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.The nanoformulation showed antifungal property in accordance with other inflammatory conditions.
