in vitro antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles, at concentrations of 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 ppm, was studied on five phytopathogenic fungi, and a biocontrol agent. then effect of silver nanoparticle at 6 ppm (optimum concentration) was evaluated on macrophomina phaseolina in greenhouse. for in vitro experiment, the fungal isolates were grown on potato dextrose agar medium amended with si...

Plant phenolics have high reducing capacity which can be exploited in the synthesis of nanomaterials. In the present study, phytoreductant vanillic acid is used to produce and coat silver nanoparticles. The effects of Ag nanoparticles on the unicellular green algae D. Salina were then investigated. Under optimum  pH and temperature, silver ions were reduced to silver metal by vanillic acid. The...

The blue triangle nanosilver (BAgNP) sol was prepared by the two reducers of NaBH4 and H2O2. Using BAgNP as the precursor, a small spherical nanosilver (AgNP) sol in yellow was synthesized by addition of suitable amounts of X (-) (X = Cl, Br, and I). The oxidization process of BAgNP to AgNP was studied in detail by resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS), surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), l...

residual microorganisms in the root canal system (rcs) after endodontic therapy such as candida albicans are a major cause of endodontic failure. calcium hydroxide (ch) and chlorhexidine (chx) have suitable antimicrobial activity against bacteria and can be used as intracanal medicaments. nanosilver has also shown antimicrobial activity against microorganisms. this study aimed to compare the an...

nanotechnology is a new and specific method for therapy of diseases. nanosilver particle is one of the functional fields of nanotechnology. it has been shown that these nanoparticles have antibacterial and antifungal properties. different studied have been shown that nanoparticles may have important role in medicine. for example, it has been shown to have inhibitory effects on the treatment of ...

effect of nanosilver (ns) on the heat-transferring rate to the core section of medium density fiberboard (mdf) mat was studied here. a 400 ppm aqueous nanosilver suspension was used at three consumption levels of 100, 150, and 200 ml/kg, based on the weight of dry wood fibers; the results were then compared with the control mdf panels. the size range of nanosilver was 30-80 nm. results showed t...
