The Antimicrobial Properties of Silver Nanoparticles in Bacillus subtilis Are Mediated by Released Ag(+) Ions

The superior antimicrobial properties of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are well-documented, but the exact mechanisms underlying Ag-NP microbial toxicity remain the subject of intense debate. Here, we show that Ag-NP concentrations as low as 10 ppm exert significant toxicity against Bacillus subtilis...
