Green-synthesised silver nanoparticles (AgNP) used to treat antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This article addresses the synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) based on Acacia nilotica plant extract, as well as their antibacterial efficacy against human illnesses. The information of homogeneous, spherical shaped AgNP with an average size of 23.65 nm was confirmed by XRD, SEM, EDAX, TEM, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and FTIR analysis. The effectiveness of the produced AgNP against various bacteria was tested using MIC and zone of inhibition experiments, showing impressive inhibitory effects. These findings imply that the environmentally friendly production method and potent antibacterial properties of the biosynthesized AgNP hold promise for upcoming bio-related uses.
