Abstract: A present study reveals the efficiency of Abies Webbiana for green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The synthesised silver nanomaterials were characterized by using UV-visible, FTIR, PXRD, FESEM & EDX.PXRD studies confirmed the nano size of the particles. FESEM studies showed the structure of the nanoparticles that is no other elements were present in the bio-synthesised sample. The antibacterial activity of the nanoparticles was examined against gram positive bacteria (staphylococcus aureus), gram negative bacteria (Escherichia coli & pseudomonas aeruginosa), respectively. The bio-synthesized AgNPs were great interest due to their eco-friendliness, economic prospect and feasibility and short time for synthesis may be wide range of applications in nanomedicine, catalysis medicine mainly for the pharmaceutical industry for development of few formulations against the microbial strains which are developing resistance to traditional antibiotics.
