Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs or nanosilver) material has been receiving increasing attention in the recent decade. For example, AgNPs and its application has been studied and exploited to a large extent. In fact, it was reported that nanosilver had a history of approximately 120 years of usage, mainly under the term ‘colloidal silver’.
