Photolytic formation of silver nanoparticles under violet light and their antibacterial efficacy against Escherichia coli

Silver nitrate is a well-known antimicrobial, but its photoactivation under visible light remains underexplored. This study demonstrates that violet light (λₘₐₓ = 403 nm) illumination of Escherichia coli treated with silver nitrate leads to the formation of silver nanoparticles w...
