     This study was conducted for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles by using olive leaves aqueous extract and evaluate its antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro. The synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by Ultra Violet Visible – spectrophotometer and Scanning Electron Microscopy. Well diffusion method was used to show the antibacterial action of silver nanoparticles against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro in comparison with standard antibacterial silver sulfadiazine by using different concentrations of each agent ranged from 12.5-200 μg/ml. The results of this study showed it possible to produce silver nanoparticles in eco-friendly and easy process and UV-Visible absorption spectra of the silver nanoparticles revealed maximum absorbance at 420 and 430 nm. The Scanning Electron Microscopy analysis demonstrated the mean of the silver particles diameter was 26 nm. The antibacterial findings of the synthesized silver nanoparticles against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro showed that the silver nanoparticles were more effective than silver sulfadiazine against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It could be concluded that olive leaves extract can be used effectively in the production of silver nanoparticles and these synthesized nanoparticles had considerable antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro.

The present study demonstrates the effect of storage period on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), which synthesized by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and their antibacterial activity. The result shows that the size of (AgNPs) which synthesis by Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 93.55nm after 4-72hour, and when storage about 2 years, we found that the size of AgNPs was stable and reduced to 69.0nm. Antibacterial activity against pathogenic microbes: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Serratia sp,Streptococcus sp , Klebsiella sp, Candida albicans was performed before and after storage and found that AgNPs have activity against this microbes.

Antibacterial activity of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles was studied using the macrobroth dilution technique. The silver nanoparticles was significantly active (p > 0.05) against the test organisms at an extract concentration of 75 µg/ml. Concentrations ≤ 50 µg/ml were not as effective as the colony forming units at this concentration, 1.61 x 106 for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and concentrations ≤ 25 µg/ml 1.45 x 106 for Pseudomonas aeruginosa respectively, were about the same range as the colony forming units of the controls. The silver nanoparticles inhibited Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus more (MIC of 75 µg/ml and MBC of 100 µg/ml) than they inhibited P. aeruginosa (both MIC and MBC was 100 µg/ml). The LD50 of the synthesized silver nanoparticles after oral administration was seen to be greater than 5000 mg/kg body weight and is therefore thought to be safe. This study supports the use of silver nanoparticles as therapeutic agents. KEYWORDS: Nanoparticles, Biosynthesis, Inhibition, Therapeutic agents, Macroboth Technique
