Harnessing the power of Neobacillus niacini AUMC-B524 for silver oxide nanoparticle synthesis: optimization, characterization, and bioactivity exploration.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Biotechnology provides a cost-effective way to produce nanomaterials such as silver oxide nanoparticles (Ag₂ONPs), which have emerged as versatile entities with diverse applications. This study investigated the ability of endophytic bacteria to biosynthesize Ag₂ONPs.

Results

A novel endophytic bacterial strain, Neobacillus niacini AUMC-B524, was isolated from Lycium shawii Roem. & Schult leaves and used to synthesize Ag₂ONPS extracellularly. Plackett-Burman design and response surface approach was carried out to optimize the biosynthesis of Ag₂ONPs (Bio-Ag₂ONPs). Comprehensive characterization techniques, including UV-vis spectral analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microsc
