Anti-fungal activity of SiO(2)/Ag(2)S nanocomposites against Aspergillus niger

Submicron particles of amorphous SiO2 have been used to grow Ag2S nanophases at their surfaces. SEM and TEM analysis showed morphological well-defined nanocomposite particles consisting of Ag2S nanocrystals dispersed over the silica surfaces. These SiO2/Ag2S nanocomposites were investigated as anti-...
