Mechanisms of Silver Nanoparticle Action in Bacteria and Potential for Bacterial Resistance The antimicrobial activity of silver in general‚ and of silver nanoparticles in particular‚ is of significant interest because it appears to be independent of the strain of bacteria. Crucially‚ antibiotic resistant strains‚ MRSA (methicillin‚ or multiple-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)‚ E. coli O157‚ and others are affected by silver [6]. The reasons for this are not fully clear as yet‚ but could be related
