Funded Activity Summary

Reactive oxygen species generation by zerovalent silver nanoparticles; implications to toxicity and contaminant degradation. Nanoparticulate silver is now being used for the purification of drinking water yet many questions remain concerning its mode of purifying action. Here we investigate the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by nanoparticulate silver and examine the relationship between ROS generation and the purifying action of "nano-silver".
