  The main aim of this study is to evaluate the comparison of antimicrobial efficacy of silver nanoparticles synthesized from aqueous plant extracts of Phyllanthus amarus and Tinospora cordifolia. The synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterzed by UV-VIS spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infra-Red spectroscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering and zeta potential. The antimicrobial activity of synthesized silver nanoparticles was compared with their respective plant extracts by agar well diffussion method and minimum inhibitory concentration was also calculated. The zone of inhibition varied in range of 12 ± 1 to17 ± 0.58 mm with 100 μg/ml silver nanoparticles concentration, while acetonic, methanolic and aqueous extracts of respective plants does not showed any activity even at 1 mg/ml i.e. 10..
