Silver nanomaterials possess distinctive physical, chemical, and optical characteristics that are used for a diverse array of applications. The renewed interest in silver as a comprehensive ...

A team of research scientists led by US Food and Drug Administration chemist Timothy Duncan has found evidence of silver nanoparticles embedded in packaging used as an antimicrobial agent seeping into ...

A recent study published in Bioinorganic Chemistry and Applications reported a green synthesis method for silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using peel extract from the “Mollar de Elche” variety of ...

The interaction of silver materials with light is well-known as the basis of film photography. But, there are much more sophisticated interactions when we consider very, very small particles of silver ...

Antibiotic resistance is a major public health issue, so researchers are constantly looking for new solutions to tackle this problem. Two candidates with bactericidal properties that are not ...

The team attached anionic groups to the surfaces of cellulose nanofibers and paired them with cations drawn from an ionic liquid; at elevated temperatures the cations migrate along the interfaces ...
