Functionalization of silk by silver nanoparticles synthesized using the aqueous extract from tea stem waste

Silk has poor antibacterial and UV protection properties which limit its application fields. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have attracted great attention due to their excellent antibacterial activity. This work proposed a green and efficient way to prepare AgNPs from silver nitrate using the aqueous...
