Impacts of Select Organic Ligands on the Colloidal Stability, Dissolution Dynamics, and Toxicity of Silver Nanoparticles

Key understanding of potential transformations that may occur on silver nanoparticle (AgNP) surface upon interaction with naturally ubiquitous organic ligands (e.g., −SH (thoil), humic acid, or −COO (carboxylate)) is limited. Herein we investigated how dissolved organic carbon (DOC), −SH (in cystein...
