Preparation of Banana peel powder-silver nanoparticle for antibacterial activity

In this study, the aim is to investigate the characterization properties the effect of antibacterial study composite by using banana peel and silver complex and being assisted with different type of characterized by using SEM, Uv-Vis, FTIR and the antibacterial test itself. The banana peel powder was process by using waste banana peel that had went through dry and grinding process to gain the powder form product. Next, was the preparation of silver complex solution by using AgNO3. The solution of silver complex then had been mixed with banana peel powder and went through microwave irradiation process to get the BPP and AgNPs composite, complete the process with centrifuged process to separate the sample(solid) with the fluid. The sample gain was used to be tested for it antibacterial properties. The result shows the ability of (banana peel powder with silver) composite had positive ability for antibacterial product especially toward gram-negative bacteria
