objective(s): with the advent of nanotechnology, significant progress has been made in the area of nanoscale materials such as nanosilver (ag-nps). these nanoparticles have a wide range of applications and been used for antimicrobial purposes for more than a century. however, little attention has been paid to the toxicity of nanosilver wound dressing. this study was designed to investigate the ...

Silver nanoparticles have proved to possess significant antibacterial properties. Nanosilver produced by electrochemical reduction stabilized by cellulose derivatives, has been evaluated by European standards (CEN TC 216) in order to find out whether they could be applied in food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas as a suitable disinfectant. Moreover, bactericidal activity of nanosil...

this study investigated the concentration/time dependent effects of nanosilver colloid on the motionparameters of the ejaculated ram spermatozoa in vitro. after incubation of sperm samples for 30, 60, 120 and 180 min in the presence of nanosilver colloid (0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1 and 10 ppm), the motion parameters were evaluated by computer assisted sperm analysis. there was a significant (p

Nanotechnology has been advanced since the last decades. Among all nanomaterials that have been developed, nanosilver is the most frequently used nanoparticles. Its release into natural water bodies is inevitable due to its broad applications. Nanosilver (nAg) was prepared via Tollens method using. The morphology, size distribution and average size of the obtained nAg was characterized using Tr...
