Abstract

Recently, there is much interest in the antimicrobial activity of silver since silver has known to be safe and effective as a disinfectant or an antimicrobial agent against a broad spectrum of microorganisms. Although silver has been applied to various kinds of products due to the effective antimicrobial activity, the quantitative antimicrobial activity or detailed mechanism of silver is not clearly investigated yet, causing the controversy and confusion. In this review paper, we summarized the characteristics, antimicrobial activities and mechanisms, synergistic effects with other antimicrobials, and applicability of silver.

다양한 미생물에 대하여 높은 불활성화 성능을 지니고 있는 은(Ag)은 최근 환경 기술 분야, 나노 기술 분야 등에서 응용 가능성이 높아 큰 주목을 받고 있으며, 새로운 적용 제품들이 활발하게 연구, 개발되고 있다. 하지만 다양한 응용 연구에도 불구하고 정확한 항균 성능 및 기작에 대한 연구 결과와 이해가 부족하여 관련 연구자와 소비자들에게 논쟁과 혼동을 야기시키고 있다. 본 글에서는 기존 연구를 중심으로 은의 미생물 불활성화 성능과 기작, 다른 항균 물질과의 시너지 효과, 응용 분야 등에 대해서 정리, 검토하여 이에 대한 연구 및 개발에 도움이 되고자 한다.
