Abstract

Silver nanoparticles are generally used in various products due to their distinctive and antibacterica activities. Nanosilver are used in electronics bio-sensing, clothing, cosmetics, sunscreen and medical devices but a large numbers of in vitro shows that AgNPs has toxic effects on various cultured mammalian cells. In this paper I reviewed about the toxicity effect of silver nanoparticles(AgNPs) on humans Health. In addition we studied to which content the silver ion fraction contribute the toxicity to cells. However by green formation of silver nanoparticles(AgNPs) the toxicity of silver nanoparticles can be reduced. More studies and research is required that confer AgNPs at lower toxicity only then their use would be proved useful in several industry biomedical contexts and for human health also. The ambition or goal of this review is to estimate the literature on the toxicity of silver nanoparticles. The aim of this review to inspire more studies in the field of toxicity of nanoparticles of silver or silver nanoparticles.
