Results from the synthesis and biological testing of a new nanobiocomposite containing silver (Ag) nanoparticles encapsulated in the natural biologically active polymer arabinogalactan were presented. The physicochemical properties of the water-soluble Ag-containing polymeric nanocomposite were described. It was found that the new nanocomposite upon intragastric injection to white rats activated the antioxidant system, caused slight changes in brain and liver tissues, and produced biochemical shifts characteristic of compensatory—adaptive stress mechanisms.
