Acticoat dressings and major burns: systemic silver absorption.
70
TL;DR: This study confirmed the view that Acticoat is safe to use on patients with burns, even when they are extensive, and serum silver levels were elevated but remained similar to that reported following the use of silver sulfadiazine.

Antibacterial approaches in tissue engineering using metal ions and nanoparticles: From mechanisms to applications
Maria Godoy-Gallardo,Ulrich Eckhard,Luis Delgado,Yolanda Puente,Mireia Hoyos-Nogués,F. Javier Gil,Roman A. Perez +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive review on how metal ions and ion nanoparticles have the potential to decrease or eliminate unwanted bacteria is provided, including specific metal ions such as silver, zinc, copper, iron and gold.

Antibacterial and biological characteristics of silver containing and strontium doped plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings.
TL;DR: Evidence of cytotoxic effects of the Ag-HA coatings was shown, characterized by poor cellular morphology and cell death and nearly complete loss of functional ALP activity, which was able to effectively offset these negative effects and improve performance compared with pure HA-coated samples.

Chiara Rigo,Letizia Ferroni,Ilaria Tocco,Marco Roman,I. Munivrana,Chiara Gardin,Warren R. L. Cairns,Vincenzo Vindigni,Bruno Azzena,Carlo Barbante,Barbara Zavan +10 more
TL;DR: In this preliminary study, the silver nanoparticle (Ag NP)-based dressing, Acticoat™ Flex 3, has been applied to a 3D fibroblast cell culture in vitro and to a real partial thickness burn patient, demonstrating the safety of Ag NP-based dressing in wound treatment.
Toxicity of silver ions, metallic silver, and silver nanoparticle materials after in vivo dermal and mucosal surface exposure: A review
TL;DR: Silver may cause genotoxicity, but additional data are required to assess its carcinogenic potential and other reported toxicities include hepatic, renal, neurological, and hematological effects.

Environmental Life Cycle Assessment of Nanosilver-Enabled Bandages
TL;DR: A cradle-to-grave life cycle assessment from nanoparticle synthesis to end-of-life incineration was performed for a commercially available nanosilver-enabled medical bandage, suggesting that AgNPs are the largest contributor to impacts of the bandage for all impact categories considered despite low AgNP loading.
