Green synthesis of chitosan-stabilized silver-colloidal nanoparticles immobilized on white-silica-gel beads and the antibacterial activities in a simulated-air-filter
Muhammad Iqbal Hidayat,Muhammad Adlim,Ilham Maulana,Suhartono Suhartono,Zinatul Hayati,Noor Hana Hanif Abu Bakar +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the green synthesis and immobilization of colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on a solid compatible support was explored and its antibacterial properties on reusable air filters were also discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synergistic Therapies as a Promising Option for the Treatment of Antibiotic-Resistant Helicobacter pylori.
TL;DR: The aim of the current review is to present scientific reports showing newly discovered or repurposed compounds with an ability to enhance the antimicrobial activity of classically used antibiotics against H. pylori.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amino acid-mediated loading of Ag NPs and tannic acid onto cotton fabrics: Increased antibacterial activity and decreased cytotoxicity
TL;DR: In this paper , L-cysteine (Cys) is firstly bonded to the surface of cotton non-woven (CO) fabric as esterification, and then Ag+ and tannic acid (TA) are adsorbed onto the modified fabric via complexation and hydrogen bond interaction.

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.
