The antimicrobial effects of the phytoconstituents were examined for three bacterial and fungal species. The highest anti-bacterial and antifungal activities were found in flavonoid compound, where the maximum zone of inhibition was recorded in &lt;em&gt;Staphylococcus aureus&lt;/em&gt; 18mm compared to positive control chloramphenicol (24mm). 13mm observed in &lt;em&gt;A. flavus&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;A. ochraceous&lt;/em&gt; where positive control streptomycin exhibits 18mm. GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of three major compounds in 8&amp;alpha; (2H)-Phenanthrenol, 7-ethenyldodecahydro-1,1,4&amp;alpha;, 7-tetramethyl-, acetate, [4&amp;alpha;s(4&amp;alpha;&amp;alpha;, 4b&amp;alpha;, 7&amp;alpha;, 8&amp;alpha;&amp;alpha;, 10&amp;alpha;&amp;alpha;)], Benzoic acid, 4-methyl- , 2-oxo-2- phenylethyl ester and Cyclohexanol, 5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-, [1S-(1&amp;alpha;,2&amp;alpha;,5&amp;alpha;)] in the crude extracts. The preparative HPLC analysis proved the presence of single peak from the crude flavonoid compounds, where the absorption maximum was between 207-290nm exhibited by the UV spectrum analysis. FTIR spectrum confirmed the presence of amide group, phenol group, carboxylic acid, alkynyl, alkene and aromatic ring. NMR studies proved the presence of phenyl group, methyl group and H&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;C-CH group and their molecular weight recorded as 353 through the mass spectrum analysis. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The identified compound considered as the vital compound to design the &amp;ldquo;green antimicrobial drugs&amp;rdquo;.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1208</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tamilarasan Tamil Kumar&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Seeni Mohamed Salique&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Mohamed Hussain Muhammad Ilyas&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Nooruddin Thajuddin&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Annamalai Panneerselvam&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;, Mohamed Khan Syed Ali Padusha&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;, Hussain Syed Jahangir&lt;sup&gt;1,&lt;/sup&gt;*&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Nanoparticles are formally synthesized by chemical methods in which the toxic and flammable chemicals are used. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;This article reports about an effective, rapid and eco-friendly technique for the fabrication of gold nanoparticles from gold chloride solution using &lt;em&gt;Azima tetracantha&lt;/em&gt; Lam. leaves extract. The effects of the leaves extract of &lt;em&gt;Azima tetracantha&lt;/em&gt;, the concentration of Gold chloride solution, the time of the reaction and the effect of tem&amp;not;perature on the rate of the reaction were investigated. The synthesized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were characterized by using various techniques such as Dynamic Light Spectroscopy (DLS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis spectra gave surface plasmon resonance (SPR) at 540 nm, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). This revealed the reduction of gold ions (Au&lt;sup&gt;+&lt;/sup&gt;) to gold metal (Au&lt;sup&gt;0&lt;/sup&gt;) which indicated the formation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The antimicrobial action of biosynthesized AuNPs indicated effective activity against bacterial pathogens &lt;em&gt;Aeromonas liquefaciens&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Enterococcus fecalis&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Micrococcus luteus&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Salmonella typhimurium&lt;/em&gt; and fungal pathogens &lt;em&gt;Candida albicans&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Cryptococcus sp, Microsporum canis, Trichophyton rubrum&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This revealed that gold nanoparticles could provide a safer alternative to conventional antimicrobial agents.&lt;/p&gt;
