“…The work of Abbaszadegan et al (2015) states that the antimicrobial action of the nanoparticle shelf depends on the charge of the external surface of the particles as influenced by the stabilizers and capping agents used in the synthesis; thus, the AgNP fabricated in the present study can be considered negatively charged. According to Mandal et al (2016), the mechanism of AgNP action depends on the outer charge of the bacterial membranes, and this may explain the decreased susceptibility of S. mutans. Furthermore, the physical and chemical properties of the AgNP related to the release of Ag + ions are noteworthy.…”

“…Zeta potential is another physico-chemical property that has an effect on antimicrobial activity since the interaction between nanoparticles and the cell membrane is based on electrostatic adhesion. [150][151][152] In their study, El Badawy et al synthesized AgNPs having various zeta potentials and investigated the antibacterial activity against Bacillus species. 153 They found a direct correlation between the nanoparticle surface charge and antibacterial activity.…”

“…The tolerance level of the tested pathogens against sAgNPs was determined from MBC/MIC ratio and was found to be 4. When MBC/MIC ratio is ≥16, the test agent is considered to have bacteriostatic effect, and when ≤4, it is considered to be bactericidal . Based on this, sAgNPs used in this study might have exerted bactericidal effects to both S .…”
