Health and Environmental Impact of Silver Nanomaterials

Sondi and Salopek-Sondi [6] have shown that silver NPs (12nm diameter) were an effective bactericide. Both, scanning and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that silver NPs damaged Escherichia coli cells by disrupting the cell wall, and subsequently accumulated in the bacterial membrane. The antimicrobial effects of silver NPs (13.5 nm) on microorganisms such as yeast, E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus were investigated by Kim et al. (7). [Pg.225]

For the antimicrobial tests, these organisms were grown on Muller-Hinton agar (MHA) plates treated with different concentrations of silver NPs, from 0.2 to [Pg.225]
