Abstract
Nanosuspensions are non-toxic lipid nano-droplets which are reported safe and approved for human consumption and common food substances that are 'Generally Recognized as Safe' (GRAS) by the FDA. So, in our work, emulsified nanosuspensions were standardized by using leaves of Platanus orientalis with coconut oil as herbal surfactant by varying sonication times. The synthesised emulsified herbal nanosuspensions were further characterized for their nanostructure by using dynamic light scattering method (DLS) and their antimicrobial activity was tested on laboratory isolated E.Coli. by using Agar well diffusion method followed by agar plating to observe MIC. And, proposed herbal nanosuspensions are found to have submicron sized particles and also have good antimicrobial activity. Hence, they can be further used as potential source of cost effective and safe therapy to treat various bacterial infections.
