Green Synthesis and Characterization of Antimicrobial Synergistic AgCl/BAC Nanocolloids.

ABSTRACT: All over the world, one of the major challenges is the green synthesis of potential materials against antimicrobial resistance and viruses. This study demonstrates a simple method like chemistry lab titration to synthesize green, facile, scalable, reproducible, and stable synergistic silver chloride/benzyldimethylhexadecyl-ammonium chloride (AgCl/BAC) colloidal Nanoantimicrobials (NAMs). Nanocolloidal dispersions of AgCl in an aqueous medium are prepared by using silver nitrate (AgNO₃) as precursor and BAC as both sources of chloride and stabilizer, holding an asymmetric molecular structure. The synthetic approach is scalable and green. Both the morphology and stability of AgCl/BAC nanocolloids (NCs) were investigated as a function of different molar fractions of the reagents. A
