The toxicity of combinations of antibiotics with AgNPs was assessed by the disc diffusion method.
Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by the disc diffusion method using antibiotic disks (Becton Dickinson) according to the standard CLSI protocol.
Antibacterial activity of bark, leaves, fruit pulp and seed extracts were investigated by the disc diffusion method [29].
Antimicrobial activity of the composites against Bacillus subtilis, and Escherichia coli were investigated by the disc diffusion method.
The antibacterial property of gall exract of Quercus infectoria against Enterococcus faecalis was assessed by the disc diffusion method.
The antibacterial potential of POC and its composites was evaluated by the disc diffusion method against Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis.
Antimicrobial activity of irradiated and non-irradiated gelatin was investigated against Bacillus cereus and Escherichia coli by the disc diffusion method.
Moreover, AgNPs have also shown antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus as observed by the disc diffusion assay and growth kinetics curve.
Moreover, all the synthesized compounds were tested against antimicrobial activities by the disc diffusion method, which exhibited higher promising biological activities.
The in vitro antimicrobial activities of complexes 1 and 2 were also investigated against nine bacterial strains and one fungus by the disc diffusion test method.
Antimicrobial activity of the melanin-mediated AgNPs against a representative pathogen Salmonella paratyphi MTCC 735 was checked by the disc diffusion method as described earlier (Bankar et al. 2010b).
