Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (NPs) have been the subjects of researchers because of their unique properties (e.g., size and shape depending optical, antimicrobial, and electrical properties). A variety of preparation techniques have been reported for the synthesis of silver NPs; notable examples include, laser ablation, gamma irradiation, electron irradiation, chemical reduction, photochemical methods, microwave processing, and biological synthetic methods. This review presents an overview of silver nanoparticle preparation by physical, chemical, and biological synthesis. The aim of this review article is, therefore, to reflect on the current state and future prospects, especially the potentials and limitations of the above mentioned techniques for industries.

Enhancing mechanical and antibacterial performances of organic cotton materials with greenly synthesized colored silver nanoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of AgNPs to detect the appearance and morphologies of silver nanoparticles into the fabric surface after the coloration process.

Silver nanoparticle synthesis, UV-Vis spectroscopy to find particle size and measure resistance of colloidal solution

TL;DR: In this paper, the UV-Vis spectrum was taken for the colloidal silver nanoparticle and analysed to roughly measure the particle size. And that value was also cross checked by the optical theorem and weighed the resistance of colloidal solution for different parameters.

Toxicological alterations induced by subacute exposure of silver nanoparticles in Wistar rats

TL;DR: It is suggested that inhaled subacute exposure to AgNP results in accumulation of AgNPs in the lungs, liver, and kidneys, preferentially, as well as mediates induced systemic toxicity.

Bio-inspired synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Hibiscus Tiliaceus L. flower extracts for improved optical characteristics

TL;DR: In this article, the morphology and crystal structure of as-synthesized silver nanoparticles (NPs) were determined by transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction, and the optical nonlinearities of silver NPs were investigated using z-scan technique with low power argon laser beam at wavelengths 488 nm and 514 nm in continuous wave regime and at 532 nm in pulsed laser regime.

Light-emitting diodes made from cadmium selenide nanocrystals and a semiconducting polymer

TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid organic/inorganic electroluminescent device was constructed based on the recombination of holes injected into a layer of semiconducting p-paraphenylene vinylene (PPV) with electrons injected into the multilayer film of cadmium selenide nanocrystals.

Green synthesis of metal nanoparticles using plants

TL;DR: Most of the plants used in metal nanoparticle synthesis are shown in this article, and the advantages of using plant and plant-derived materials for biosynthesis of metal nanoparticles have interested researchers to investigate mechanisms of metal ions uptake and bioreduction by plants, and to understand the possible mechanism of nanoparticle formation in plants.

Silver Colloid Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Characterization, and Their Antibacterial Activity

TL;DR: The reduction of [Ag(NH(3))(2)](+) by maltose produced silver particles with a narrow size distribution with an average size of 25 nm, which showed high antimicrobial and bactericidal activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including highly multiresistant strains such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
