Background: Nanotechnology has provided great possibilities in various fields of science and technology. The aim of this study was to assess the antimicrobial activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles synthesized using nutmeg and flax seed formulation against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Materials and Methods: Nutmeg and flax seed formulation was prepared and mixed with zinc oxide for zinc oxide nanoparticles formation, and it is centrifuged. It was then placed in the well cultured agar plates against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and incubated for 24 hours. The zone of inhibition was then calculated. Results: Against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 25μL showed 9mm of zone of inhibition, 50μL showed 10mm of zone of inhibition, 100μL showed 15mm of zone of inhibition and 15mm of zone of inhibition against antibiotic. Conclusion: The present study suggests that nutmeg and flax seed formulation mediated zinc oxide nanoparticles showed potent antimicrobial effect against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
