What is it about?

Alternatives to combat antibiotic resistance here we used nanotechnology. phytogenic Silver nano particles reduces the infection in mammary tissues at very low concentration compared to Cefepime.

Why is it important?

Our findings showed that combination of known phytochemical (Boswellic Acid is known for its anti-inflammatory activity) with silver nanoparticles will reduce the dose of antibiotics by 10-100 fold. Thus,with the help of nano technology we can avoid indiscriminate use of antibiotics and it can also be tried against Multi Drug Resistant Bacterial Infections.
