Resumen

Chemical methods provide an easy way to synthesize silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in solution. These metal nanoparticles have a great potential for biomedical applications as an antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral agent or in wound healing. The adjustment of the parameters involved in these reactions permits a precise control over the size, shape, monodispersity, and the surfaces of the nanoparticles. These nanoparticles are being used in the design of new hybrid organic-inorganic or inorganic nanomaterials for biomedical applications. © Versita Sp. z o.o.
