Novel microfilaricidal activity of nanosilver
International Journal of Nanomedicine, 2012 The currently available drug repertoire against lymphatic filariasis, a major health hazard in the developing world, is inadequate and is fraught with serious limitations. Thus, the development of an effective antifilarial strategy has become a global research thrust mandated by the World Health Organization.

Nanosilver – Occupational exposure limits
Medycyna Pracy, 2015 Historically, nanosilver has been known as colloidal silver composed of particles with a size below 100 nm. Silver nanoparticles are used in many technologies, creating a wide range of products. Due to antibacterial properties nanosilver is used, among others, in medical devices (wound dressings), textiles (sport clothes, socks), plastics and building ...

Kinetics and Mechanisms of Nanosilver Oxysulfidation [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2011 Among the many new engineered nanomaterials, nanosilver is one of the highest priority cases for environmental risk assessment. Recent analysis of field samples from water treatment facilities suggests that silver is converted to silver sulfide, whose very low solubility may limit the bioavailability and adverse impact of silver in the environment. The

Utilization of triangle nanosilver to prepare spherical nanosilver and quantitatively detect trace titanium by SERS [PDF]
Nanoscale Research Letters, 2014 Abstract 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).
