Currently, nano/microparticles are widely used in various fields. Silver particles are one of the most vital of the various particles, due to their unique optical-physical-chemical properties. The developed materials have been proposed for use in various fields such as in biosensors, diagnostics, imaging, catalysts, solar cells, and as antibacterials. Their unique, size-dependent plasmonic properties render the particles superior in biomedical applications. This importance of silver materials led to the first edition of Silver Nano/Microparticles: Modification and Applications, which was successfully published last year with ten outstanding papers. This second edition of the Special Issue also provides original contributions detailing the synthesis, modification, and applications of silver materials. Eleven outstanding papers which describe examples of the most recent advances in silver nano/microparticles are included.

Following an introduction to biogenic metal nanoparticles, this book presents how they can be biosynthesized using bacteria, fungi and yeast, as well as their potential applications in biomedicine. It is shown that the synthesis of nanoparticles using microbes is eco-friendly and results in reproducible metal nanoparticles of well-defined sizes, shapes and structures. This biotechnological approach based on the process of biomineralization exploits the effectiveness and flexibility of biological systems. Chapters include practical protocols for microbial synthesis of nanoparticles and microbial screening methods for isolating a specific nanoparticle producer as well as reviews on process optimization, industrial scale production, biomolecule-nanoparticle interactions, magnetosomes, silver nanoparticles and their numerous applications in medicine, and the application of gold nanoparticles in developing sensitive biosensors.
