Anti-microbiological activities of bio-synthesized silver Nano-stars by Saccharopolyspora hirsuta.

ABSTRACT: A novel strain of Saccaropolyspora hirsuta was isolated from an insect Tapinoma simrothi for the first time and was morphologically and physiologically characterized. It was genetically identified using 16S rRNA and sequence similarity percentage in genbank with closely related species as strain ess_amA6 of Saccaropolyspora hirsuta. The accession number of strain ess_amA6 is KF996506. Antagonistic activity of strain ess_amA6 against some pathogenic Gram positive and negative bacteria, and unicellular fungus Candida albicans was studied. In addition, star shaped silver nanoparticles were biosynthesized using strain ess_amA6. The silver Nano stars were characterized by UV-us spectrophotometer. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis confirmed the conversi
