Aim of the present study was the isolation and characterization of gold nanoparticles synthesizing bacteria from these sites for synthesis of gold nanoparticles. Eighty five bacterial isolates were isolated from the samples using nutrient agar medium. All the bacterial isolates were studied for various morphological characters. Eighty five bacterial isolates were screened individually for their ability to synthesize gold nanoparticles and only 38 bacterial isolates, from goldmine were shown to possess gold nanoparticles synthesizing activity. |
