Summary:

Silver Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization and Applications [Provided by Editors] The book "SILVER NANOPARTICLES: Synthesis, functionalization and Applications" presents a detailed investigation of the various methods of synthesizing AgNPs via chemical and green methods. The surface engineered silver nanoparticles present immense applications in the contemporary era starting from theranostics, biosensors, next generation antimicrobials, fabrication of solar cells, to the effective soil management leading to a sustainable agriculture. The widespread utility of AgNPs necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the operational strategies revolving around their surface modification and conjugation. This book epigrammatically discusses the candidature of engineered AgNPs as the material of future [Edited by Taimur] Silver Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization and Applications presents detailed information about the range of methods of synthesizing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The book systematically delves into the subject with an introductory chapter before moving to chemical synthesis of AGnPs and fabrication methods which help in assigning functional properties for useful nanomaterials. Basic and advanced synthetic methods like surface functionalization and bioconjugation are covered. Additionally, the book informs about impactful applications of AGNPs across a range of industries. Through this book, readers will be able to understand the importance of silver nanoparticles as a futuristic material in scientific investigations and gain a comprehensive understanding of the operational strategies revolving around their surface modification and conjugation. Key Features: -Covers the basics of silver nanoparticle (AGNP) synthesis -Focuses on green methods of AGNPs - Covers information about surface modification and functionalization of

AGNPs with different molecules (including biomolecules) -Covers a range of applications of AGNPs -Includes advanced applications of AGNPs in next-generation antibiotics Silver Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Functionalization and Applications a handy reference for scholars in advanced chemical engineering, materials science and pharmacology programs as well as anyone who wants to know all about silver nanoparticles.
