TLDR
The effluent from a commercially available silver nanowashing machine was shown to have negative effects on a natural bacterial community as its abundance was clearly reduced when exposed to the nanowash water.About:

Combination of cloud point extraction with single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to characterize silver nanoparticles in soil leachates
TL;DR: It is shown that the presence of high amounts of Ag(I) hamper silver nanoparticle size and nanoparticle concentration determination in aqueous samples by SP-ICPMS.
Book ChapterDOI
The Life Cycle of Engineered Nanoparticles.
TL;DR: This book chapter describes the processes that usually occur at all the stages of the life cycle of the nano-enabled product, from the nanomaterial synthesis to the end-of-life of the products.

Comparison of adsorptive features between silver ion and silver nanoparticles on nanoporous materials
Jaehoon Sim,Ha Nee Umh,Hyeon Ho Shin,Hwa Kyung Sung,Seung Yeon Oh,Byung Cheun Lee,Selvaraj Rengaraj,Younghun Kim +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a bimodal nanoporous silica (BNS) was used to compare the removal efficiency of Ag + and AgNP with unimodal NS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uptake, translocation, and transformation of silver nanoparticles in plants
TL;DR: In this article , the plant uptake of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) that occurred in soil systems and the in planta fate of AgNPs were reviewed, and the authors concluded that the uptake of Silver NPs was beneficial for plant growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-phase solvent bar micro-extraction as an approach to silver ultra-traces speciation in estuarine water samples
TL;DR: Results showed that Ag(+) is selectively transported by TIBPS from estuarine water samples after comparison of the results with those obtained by the reference method of liquid extraction with APDC/DDDC, which showed a decrease in Ag pre-concentration efficiency after additions.

Does the antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles depend on the shape of the nanoparticle? A study of the Gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: This is the first comparative study on the bactericidal properties of silver nanoparticles of different shapes, and the results demonstrate thatsilver nanoparticles undergo a shape-dependent interaction with the gram-negative organism E. coli.

Nanoparticle Silver Released into Water from Commercially Available Sock Fabrics
Troy M. Benn,Paul Westerhoff +1 more
TL;DR: Variable leaching rates among sock types suggests that the sock manufacturing process may control the release of silver, and physical separation and ion selective electrode (ISE) analyses suggest that both colloidal and ionic silver leach from the socks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of enhanced antibacterial effects of novel silver nanoparticles
TL;DR: The antibacterial effect of silver nanoparticles used in this study was found to be far more potent than that described in the earlier reports and was more pronounced against gram-negative bacteria than gram-positive organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
The inhibitory effects of silver nanoparticles, silver ions, and silver chloride colloids on microbial growth.
TL;DR: The results suggest that nitrifying bacteria are especially susceptible to inhibition byAg NPs, and the accumulation of Ag NPs could have detrimental effects on the microorganisms in wastewater treatment.
