TL;DR: In this article, the extract prepared from the parts of the Cynara scolymus L. (artichoke) plant that is not poisonous was used for recycling wastes and providing their use in useful fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Handling (Nano)Silver as Antimicrobial Agent: Therapeutic Window, Dissolution Dynamics, Detection Methods and Molecular Interactions
TL;DR: A thorough search of literature from chemistry, materials and environmental science, biology and medicine lead to this review, in which the potential use of silver and its compounds in medicine, ongoing processes of dissolution and the different methods by which this usefulness can be evaluated are resumed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silver effect on the tribological and antibacterial properties of a-C:Ag coatings
TL;DR: In this article, magnetron sputtering was used to deposit a 1.2-23.4% of Ag nanoparticles in the carbon matrix, and they appeared embedded in the column boundaries or surface.

The bactericidal effect of silver nanoparticles
Jose Ruben Morones,Jose Luis Elechiguerra,A. Camacho,Katherine B. Holt,Juan B. Kouri,Jose Tapia Ramirez,Miguel Jose Yacaman +6 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the bactericidal properties of the nanoparticles are size dependent, since the only nanoparticles that present a direct interaction with the bacteria preferentially have a diameter of approximately 1-10 nm.
