Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCytocompatibility and Antimicrobial Properties of Silver Nanoparticles-Loaded AMPs in the Oral CavityYanli Lv, Weikai ZhangPostoperative infection following oral metal implantation is a key factor that affects the success rate of surgery. This infection is mainly caused by bacterial biofilms. Traditional single antibacterial coatings have limitations, including a narrow antibacterial spectrum and poor cytotoxicity or stability. This study combined silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and the synthetic antimicrobial peptide GL13K using electrostatic self-assembly technology to create a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2026 · 1,685 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGreen Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles using Extract of Disporopsis Longifolia for Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene BlueKhieu Thi Tam, Dang Van Thanh, Huu Tap Van et al.In this report, the silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs)were successfully synthesized in a simple one-pot method by the leaf and stemextract of Disporopsis longifolia as reducing, capping agents, andstabilizers for the first time. The optimal extract amount, AgNO3concentration, reaction temperature, and time for the AgNPs synthesis wereidentified using Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD)and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 5 · 23 Nov 2022 · 6,563 accessesView PDFCite
