Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction The development of dyes to stain microorganisms was a significant advance in microbiology. Stains serve purposes such as it differentiate microorganisms from their surrounding environment and it allows detailed observation of microbial structures at high magnification.

activity of the green synthesized silver nanoparticles from aqueous extract of Gum of fresh Coconut was tested by the disc diffusion method against an antibiotic‚ ampicillin(1µg/µl) as a standard drug. The antibiotic resistant bacteria viz.‚ Staphylococcus aureus‚ Bacillus subtilus‚ Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia were used for the measurement of antibacterial activity‚ and the plates were incubated at 370C overnight to know the zone of inhibition. 2.2.
