Characteristics of Metallic Nanoparticles (Especially Silver Nanoparticles) as Anti-Biofilm Agents
Biofilm-associated infections account for a large proportion of chronic diseases and pose a major health challenge. Metal nanoparticles offer a new way to address this problem, by impairing microbial growth and biofilm formation and by causing degradation of existing biofilms. This review of metal n...
