Size-Controlled Production of Silver Nanoparticles by Aspergillus fumigatus BTCB10: Likely Antibacterial and Cytotoxic Effects

The biogenesis of silver nanoparticles by fungi is an ecologically clean and nontoxic method compared to other physical and chemical methods. Thus, we aimed to discuss the mycosynthesis of extracellular size-controlled AgNPs. After comprehensive screening, Aspergillus fumigatus BTCB10 (KY486782) was...
