Abstract:Introduction: Living organisms, particularly humans, frequently encounter microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, and viruses in their surroundings. Silver nanoparticles are widely used in biomedical devices due to their antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties. The study evaluates the efficacy of blue laser and silver nanoparticles from grape seed extract (AgNPs-GSE) in reducing gram-negative Escherichia coli and gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus bacteria causing infections. Methods: The sample cons… Show more
