Abstract
Background: Nanoparticles provide the hope in solving the problem of anti-biotic resistance. Thymus Vulgaris extracted silver nanoparticles gives a promising results as antibacterial, and antifungal agent. Objectives: we aimed at testing Thymus Vulgaris extracted silver nanoparticles antimicrobial activity against multi drug resistant microorganisms (MDR). Methodology: The study was implemented by fourth year students of faculty of Applied Medical Sciences, Medical Laboratory Department, Menoufia University with Microbiology laboratory of the National Liver Institute, Menoufia University cooperation. Bacterial isolates were examined for antibiotic sensitivity and confirmed as MDR by VITEK2 system. Thymus Vulgaris extracted silver nanoparticles were utilized to the tested strain in order to determine its antimicrobial properties. Results: Thymus vulgaris extracted silver nanoparticles produce inhibition zones of 20mm against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 30mm against C. albicans. Conclusions: From our study we concluded that silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) extracted from Thymus vulgaris, and Thymus vulgaris essential oil extract has shown promising results as an alternative treatment for multidrug -resistant bacterial and fungal infections (MDROs)
