  Abstract: Nanotechnology has shown significant antimicrobial properties in the form of metal nanoparticles like silver, copper, and zinc. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are biosynthesized from the fungus Fusarium oxysporum, isolated from infected ginger, which has antibacterial and antifungal properties. The synthesized AgNPs are reddish brown and have a maximum absorbance of 451 nm. The functional groups of AgNPs are investigated using FTIR analysis. SEM-EDX Shows Shape of Particle Spherical-Rod, Size from 6.13 …
