Mechanism of Bactericidal Activity of Silver Nitrate – a Concentration Dependent Bi-Functional Molecule

Silver nitrate imparts different functions on bacteria depending upon its concentration. At lower concentration it induced synthesis of nanoparticles, whereas at higher concentrations it induced cell death. Bacillus licheniformis was used as model system. The MIC was 5 mM, and it induced catalase pr...
