title: Investigating the evolution of drug mediated silver nanoparticles.
abstract: Silver nanoparticles have been prepared by a one-pot synthetic technique using the antibacterial drug, Ciprofloxacin (Cp), under optimized conditions. Several techniques are used to characterize the free and nanoparticle bound states of Cp. The time dependent release of the drug molecules from the nanoparticles proves its importance in drug delivery.
