Abstract:Following access into cell, colloidal silver nanoparticles exhibit generalized cytotoxic properties, thus appear as omnipotent microbicidal, but not suitable for systemic use unless are free of toxic effects on host cells. The serum capped silver nanoparticles when prepared from silver nitrate, using dextrose as reducing and group-matched homologous serum as a stabilizing agent, selective endocytosis and oxidative stress dependent bio-functional damages to the host are mostly eliminated. For their bio-mimickin… Show more
