Abstract
Nickel nanoparticles were biosynthesized by using P. penneri bacteria and the production was confirmed by observing the change in the color of the reaction. Further, Nickel nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible, SEM and FT-IR spectral studies. The surface morphology of the synthesized nickel nanoparticles coated with secondary metabolites of the bacteria was studied by SEM and confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. The possible role of proteins and secondary metabolites as a reducing and capping agents was thus inferred. Biosynthesized nickel nanoparticles showed antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activity.
