Silver Nanoparticles as Potential Antiviral Agents
Oct 24, 2011 – Therefore, the antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties of silver ions and silver compounds have been extensively studied.
Only recently some studies have emerged showing that metal nanoparticles can be effective antiviral agents against HIV-1 [37,38,39,40], hepatitis B virus [41], respiratory syncytial virus [42], herpes simplex virus type 1 [43,44], monkeypox virus [45], influenza virus [46] and Tacaribe virus [47].
