Antibacterial and in vitro growth inhibition study of struvite urinary stones using Oxalis corniculata Linn. leaf extract and its biofabricated silver nanoparticles.

CONCLUSION: The present work confirms the inhibitory activity of the aqueous extract of edible O. corniculata and its biofabricated silver nanoparticles against urinary tract infection (UTI) causing bacteria and urolithiasis. Therefore, the consumption of O. corniculata in our daily diet may reduce the risk of UTI and urolithiasis. PMID: 30039767 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
