Silver Nano particles, a powerful antimicrobial
hi, today i'm going to talk about a new technology the nano particles, but this ones are made of silver well...
silver is an element of the periodic table, is the element number 47. silver has different proprieties, for example is harder than gold, has a high electric and thermal conductivity, and the most popular and famous use is in the jewelry, use in rings and chains. but silver has more uses...
actually are many studies for nano particles of silver, but what is a nano particle? a nano particle is a particle with diameter unless 100 nm and has many uses like biomedical, optical, electronic, nano chemistry, or agriculture. but silver nano particles are specials, because silver is a powerful antimicrobial.
those technologies are important in my career because is really new, and investigations does not have more than 10 years so he future is here. another thing that makes this important is the use of inorganic chemistry.
today i have decides talk about'em because i really love inorganic chemistry and i think is a door to the future, for example in medicine like treatment in infections, and who know, maybe is a part of the cure of cancer.
I've learned about this particles in the school, in a scientific fair, a group talk about'em.
those particles are important in our life because make different thing more safer, for example in te picture this band-aid is covered in nano particles.
the advantage/disadvantages is the toxicity. in low concentrations are safe because in general silver is safe but in an excessive concentration could be dangerous
