The membrane depolarization and increase intracellular calcium level produced by silver nanoclusters are responsible for bacterial death
Abstract This work highlights how our silver ultra nanoclusters (ARGIRIUM-SUNc) hand-made synthesized, are very useful as a bactericide and anti-biofilm agent. The Argirium-SUNc effective antibacterial concentrations are very low (< 1 ppm) as compared to the corresponding values reported in the l...
