Abstract
The plant cassia tora is a long flowering plant, mostly found in the local area of post-Hajarmachi Karad taluka. Plant extract (root, leaves and stem) were obtained using a simple reflux method using methanol. Antimicrobial activity was carried out using the agar cup method with three microorganisms like Escherichia coli (E.coli), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus),and Salmonella paratyphi A. Phytochemical activity in the plant extracts using different tests wherein the extract shows the presence of secondary metabolites. The biosynthesis of silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) was prepared from the plant extract and exhibited antimicrobial activity. Absorption spectra of leaves, stem, and root of Cassia tora were observed at 541, 342, and 254 nm respectively using UV-Vis spectroscopy. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) exhibited bioactive compound activity and their identification.
