In the past few years, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have become one of the most researched and explored nanotechnology-derived nanostructures, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been gaining popularity in various fields due to their unique properties. These nanoparticles have a size between 1 and 100 nanometers, making them smaller than a human cell. They show excellent optical, electrical, and thermal properties, making them useful in fields such as electronics, medicine and environmental science.
Silver-based nanoparticles have a wide range of biomedical applications. Specifically, it can be applied to the development of new antibacterial agents, drug delivery preparations, detection and diagnosis platforms, medical device coatings and biomaterials, regeneration materials and tissue repair, etc. Silver nanoparticles have unique physical and chemical properties, but they also have potential toxicity. Silver-based nanostructures have anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal activities.

In addition, silver nanoparticles have been used in the treatment of cancer. Silver nanoparticles have been found to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. The study suggests that silver nanoparticles can be used as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of cancer.
Silver nanoparticles have also been used in wound healing. It have been found to promote wound healing by enhancing cell proliferation and migration. The study suggests that silver nanoparticles can be used to develop new wound dressings and other medical devices for the treatment of wounds.
Production of Basic Silver Nanoparticles
--Chemical reduction method: The production of basic silver nanoparticles involves the reduction of silver ions to form silver atoms, which then aggregate to form nanoparticles. The reducing agent can be a variety of chemicals, including sodium borohydride, ascorbic acid, and hydrazine.
--Green synthesis method: It involves the use of plant extracts or other natural materials as the reducing agent. According to a study published in the Journal of Nanoparticle Research, the green synthesis method is a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective method of producing silver nanoparticles compared to the chemical reduction method.
The size and shape of silver nanoparticles can be controlled during the production process by adjusting various parameters, such as the concentration of the reducing agent, the reaction temperature, and the reaction time. The size and shape of silver nanoparticles can affect their properties, such as their optical and catalytic properties.
