Message from the Guest Editor, Dr. Mònica Iglesias: The production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has grown in last years because of the special physicochemical properties that they present. As known, these nanomaterials are widely used in commercial products due to their antibacterial properties, which increase their intentional or unintentional release in the environment. Once there, AgNPs can suffer interactions with natural components, which can affect their final toxic effects. Therefore, characterization and quantification of these emerging pollutants in environmental and biological samples with adequate analytical methodologies is needed. The special Issue entitled “Silver Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Detection, Characterization and assessment in the environment” aims to cover current studies, in the field of the AgNPs synthesis and characterization.
