Background: Chicken sertoli cells are a model to evaluate the effects of toxic Materialss. These cells can actively proliferate in the in vitro conditions and they are able to passage several times. Because of the widespread use of nanosilver in life and also few studies on the effects of these Materialss on different cell lines, evaluation of its toxic effects is felt. Mechanism of nanosilver ...

silver salts and nanosilver (ns) are the common antimicrobial used in the treatment of chronic wounds, so they are important to assess their dermal toxicity. therefore, in this study, the possible dermal toxicity of ns particles and silver nitrate (agno3), was tested by determining the serum level of transforming growth factor-β1(tgf-β1) and study on of mouse skin tissue. in this study, 30 balb...

antibiotic resistance to microorganisms is one of the major problems faced in the field of wound care in burns patients. silver nanoparticles have come up as potent antimicrobial agent and are being evaluated in diverse medical applications ranging from silver based dressings to silver coated medical devices. we aimed in present study to test the release of nanosilver from nanosilver wound dres...

The European Commission should be regulating nanosilver, not asking for yet another report on its impact on health and the environment.

Silver salts and nanosilver (NS) are the common antimicrobial used in the treatment of chronic wounds, so they are important to assess their dermal toxicity. Therefore, in this study, the possible dermal toxicity of NS particles and silver nitrate (AgNO3), was tested by determining the serum level of transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) and study on of mouse skin tissue. In this stu...

Metal nanosolicoparticles are suspected to cause diseases in a number of organisms, including man. In this paper, we report the effects of nanosilver (Ag, 1-20 nm particles) on the early development of the zebrafish, a well-established vertebrate model. Embryos at the midgastrula stage were exposed to concentrations ranging from 100 to 0.001 mg/L to verify the effects on different endpoints: le...

BACKGROUND AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The most prominent nanoparticles for medical uses are nanosilver particles which are famous for their high anti-microbial activity. Silver ion has been known as a metal ion that exhibit anti-mold, anti-microbial and anti-algal properties for a long time. In particular, it is widely used as silver nitrate aqueous solution which has disinfecting and sterili...
