Abstract

An invitro study was conducted to investigate the antifungal properties of silver nanoparticles synthesized from edible mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus). The synthesized and characterized silver nanoparticles exhibited an excellent antifungal property on pathogenic fungal strain Aspergillums niger, causative agent of Aspergillosis disease.
