Brief Description
Description : | A non-alcoholic aqueous based Colloidal Silver solution uniquely made from its NanoAgCideTM technology for disinfecting hands and environmental surfaces.
Silver nanoparticles have antiviral efficacy against many viruses viz. HIV, Hepatitis B, Herpes simplex virus, Influenza virus etc. Recent reports have suggested the role of GSH capped-Ag2S NCs (Silver nanoclusters) in inhibiting the proliferation of Coronavirus by inhibiting the synthesis of viral negative strand RNA and viral budding. Ag NP-based materials will be able to prevent the contact infection of health care workers (HCWs), besides preventing patient infection. |
