Biological synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is considered as a fast, eco-friendly, affordable and easily scalable technology. Also, the nanoparticles produced by plants are very stable. In this study, the focus is on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles using extract of eryngium campestre. The effective parameters such as concentration of silver nitrate, pH, temperature and time, size and m...

objective(s):electromagnetic radiations which have lethal effects on the living cells are currently also considered as a disinfective physical agent.   materials and methods: in this investigation, silver nanoparticles were applied to enhance the lethal action of low powers (100 and 180 w) of 2450 mhz electromagnetic radiation especially against escherichia coli atcc 8739. silver nanoparticles ...

objective(s): the enzymatic activity of fungi has recently inspired the scientists with re-explore the fungi as potential biofactories rather than the causing agents of humans and plants infections. in very recent years, fungi are considered as worthy, applicable and available candidates for synthesis of smaller gold, silver and other nano-sized particles.  materials and methods: a standard str...

Phytostabilized silver nanoparticles are being widely studied for its various pharmacological properties. In the present study silver nanoparticles synthesized using Black pepper extract was evaluated for its acute toxicity and also for its anti inflammatory activity in carrageenan induced paw edema in rats. The anti inflammatory effect was also compared against the commercial silver nanopartic...

Background: To develop a new green approach for biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles, myconanotechnology has been represented as a novel field of study in nanotechnology. In this study, we have reported the extracellular synthesis of highly stable silver nanoparticles using three species of dermatophytes: Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Microsporum canis. Methods: Clinical ...

The influence of water chemistry on characterised polyvinyl pyrrolidone- (PVP-) coated silver nanoparticles (81 nm) was investigated. NaCl solution series of 100-800 mg L(-1) lead to initial and temporal increase in nanoparticles size, but agglomeration was limited. pH variation (5-8) had only minor influence on the hydrodynamic particle size. Acute toxicity of nanosivler to zebrafish (Danio re...
