Silver Nanoparticles in Multidrug Resistant Bacteria

November 4, 2020 updated by: Rasha Hamed, Assiut University

Bactericidal Effect of Silver Nanoparticles on Methecillin and Vancomycin Resistant Staphylococcus. Aureus (MRSA) Isolated From Critically Ill Patients

Recently, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been widely used in various applications as antimicrobial agents, anticancer, diagnostics, biomarkers, cell labels, and drug delivery systems for the treatment of various diseases. The present study investigated the bactericidal effect of AgNPs against Methecillin Resistant Staph. aureus (MRSA) and Vancomycin resistant Staph aureus (VRSA)
