Metallic nanoparticles such as silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have gained lots of attention
due to the continuous upsurge in microbial infections and diseases, and also inefficient
treatment. Also, due to rapid intensification in the antibiotic resistance in this period has
revived the consideration of the researchers and scientists to explore the therapeutic
abilities of silver and its nanoparticulate systems as potential antimicrobial agents. Indeed,
numerous studies suggested that AgNPs have exhibited significant antimicrobial actions …

Bacterial resistance to multiple drugs is a worldwide problem that afflicts public health.
Various studies have shown that silver nanoparticles are good bactericidal agents against
bacteria due to the adherence and penetration of the external bacterial membrane,
preventing different vital functions and subsequently bacterial cell death. A systematic
review of ScienceDirect, PubMed, and EBSCOhost was conducted to synthesize the
literature evidence on the association between the bactericidal property of silver …
