Fungicide is a compound which can be divided into three categories (Systemic, Non-systemic and contact fungicides) based on the function. It is used for control of fungal. Some times fungicide are showing unsteady effects due to its chemical and physical properties and getting desired output. Hence, what is reason behind this effect. I need some characterizations of sample for finding the problems and appropriate solution.
When we use silver nanoparticles for preparing fungicides substance, we use very little amount of fungicide, therefore we significantly reduce the environment pollution and reduce the costs which needed for buying the fungicides.
Dear Rajesh Kumar many thanks for this very interesting technical question. ASs already mentioned by Patricia M. A. Farias
and Yehya A. Salih metal nanoparticles, particularly copper and silver, have very high antifungal activity. There is a large number of relevant references available in the literature. Please have a look for example at the following article entitledGreen-synthesized copper nanoparticles as a potential antifungal against plant pathogens
Article Green-synthesized copper nanoparticles as a potential antifu...
This interesting paper can bee freely downloaded as public full text from researchGate.
As a typical reference on antifungal silver nanoparticles please have a look at this paper entitled
Antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles in combination with ketoconazole against Malassezia furfur
Article Antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles in combination w...
Yes, I agree with Prof. Frank Mann, there are many literatures about using Silver and Copper nanoparticles as antifungal factors against many pathogenic fungi. So they prove their high activity.
With regards!
Thank you so much dear Prof. Frank for these papers.
Actually, I need this paper entitled: Green-synthesized copper nanoparticles as a potential antifungal against plant pathogens. So I have downloaded it from your attached papers.
Really, many thanks Prof.
