Abstract
Bacterial resistance to a wide spectrum of antimicrobial medicines has evolved as a major public health concern. Antibiotics are medications that are used to kill microorganisms that could cause serious illness or death. Nanotechnology has exploded as a significant and appealing field of research, with innovative features and functionalities in a variety of fields. Silver is a versatile antibacterial and anticancer medicinal agent in the form of nanoparticles. Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been implicated in a wide variety of medicinal benefits. This review article addresses antibacterial applications of biosynthesized AgNPsthat have been researched over the last decade. AgNPs' antimicrobial potential against a variety of bacterial agents is discussed.
