GlossarySilver Nanoparticles

tiny silver particles with antimicrobial properties, used in various applications

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are tiny particles of silver that are typically between 1 and 100 nanometers in size. They are known for their antimicrobial properties and are used in various applications, including medical devices, wound dressings, and consumer products like textiles and cosmetics. Their small size allows them to interact with biological systems at the cellular level, making them useful in both therapeutic and diagnostic contexts.
