| Gaia: | This study explored the use of silver nanoparticle as a bactericidal against the propagation of Clavibacter michiganensis
onto tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill). In Mexico, tomato production covers about 73% of the
total vegetable production but it is affected by outbreak of bacteria canker caused by Clavibacter michiganensis
subspecies michiganensis (Cmm). Silver ions possess inhibitor properties, bactericides and high specter antimicrobials.
In this study, 6 groups of culture were prepared using 6 different petri dishes where silver nanoparticles
of varying concentrations (120, 84, 48, 24, 12 and 0 μg) were added. Furthermore, each group was
observed for 20 min, 1, 2, 12 and 24 h. The optimum concentration is 84 μg, which shows an average of 2 Cmm
colonies after 20 min. Further increase to 120 μg shows no significant change. However, the average colonies
was observed for 48 μg after 1, 2, 12, and 24 h. The obtained results indicate that silver nanoparticles are a
promising inhibitor, bactericide and high a specter antimicrobial for treatment or prevention of Cmm. |
