In our past work, we presented a green and easy-to-perform method for preparing silver nanoparticles, using carboxymethyl chitosan and chlorides. The objective of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of the silver nanoparticles that were prepared in our previous work. Further, we intended to determine whether this method was suitable for synthesising silver nanoparticles using other similar polymers and halide compounds. The results indicated that the silver nanoparticles produced through this approach exhibited low cytotoxicity. In addition to carboxymethyl chitosan and chlorides, we also observed that other similar polysaccharides and halides could be used in this preparation.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
