Topical Silver Nanoparticles for Microbial Activity

Silver nanoparticles are one of most nanoparticles use nowadays in the research area because it has specific physical and chemical properties, in medical fields silver nanoparticles can involve in diagnostic and treatment processes. Silver nanoparticles have antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antiangiogenic, antioxidant, cosmetics, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, the drug carrier, imaging, water treatment, and biosensing effects. Silver nanoparticles prepared with reducing agent tri-sodium citrate then incorporated in a topical cream to obtain a significant inhibition of the bacterial strains, inhibition of growth of bacterial strains in the face or other parts in the bodies.
