The unique property of the silver and gold nanoparticles having antibacterial activity drags the major attention towards the present nanotechnology. Synthesis of nanobodies is of great interest in the development of nanotechnological tool for biomedical applications. This study investigates a competent and sustainable route of AgNP and AuNP preparation using Camel milk, well adorned for their wide availability and healing property. The silver and gold nanoparticles were examined by UV-visible spectroscopy (Systonic 2203) that demonstrated a peak at 446 and 551nm respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-Zeiss) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM-FEI Tecnai G2 S-Twin) analysis showed that the size of the synthesized spherical AgNPs ranged from 200 to 300 nm and size of roughly spherical shaped AuNP in cluster ranged from 100 to 150 nm. Further, the antibacterial activity of silver and gold nanoparticles was evaluated by well diffusion method in vitro, and it was found that these biogenic nanoparticles have antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans (MTCC 1890) and Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 7443).
