Dissolution of Silver Nanowires and Nanospheres Dictates Their Toxicity to Escherichia coli.

Silver nanoparticles are extensively used in antibacterial applications. However, the mechanisms of their antibacterial action are not yet fully explored. We studied the solubility-driven toxicity of 100 x 6100 nm (mean primary diameter x length) silver nanowires (NWs) to recombinant bioluminescent...
