Abstract:The
exceptional increase in antibiotic resistance in past decades
motivated the scientific community to use silver as a potential antibacterial
agent. However, due to its unknown antibacterial mechanism and the
pattern of bacterial resistance to silver species, it has not been
revolutionized in the health sector. This study deciphers mechanistic
aspects of silver species, i.e., ions and lysozyme-coated silver nanoparticles
(L-Ag NPs), against E. coli K12 through
RNA sequencing analysis. The obtained results su… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
