simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) viruses in human cervical cancer HeLa cells. Methods The
formation of silver nanorods conjugated with sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate (Ag-MES)
was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
and thermal gravimetric analysis. The antiviral activity of this Ag-MES was examined against
HIV and HSV-1 virus replication. Results The characterizations of Ag-MES and …
