In this article Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized through physical method where the Nd-YAG laser has been used.The antimicrobial activities of these silver nanoparticles were investigated on two types of bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. These bacteria were used as representatives of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, respectively. Two experiments have been made The first one was to test the effectiveness of silver nanoparticles as an antimicrobial agent on Gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, while the other one (susceptibility Test) was to evaluate antimicrobial agents effective against bacteria resistant to multiple antibiotics. This study showed that Ag-NPs that synthesized by laser ablation have a great effect on S. aureus and E. coli bacteria and have potent antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus epidarmials (antibiotic-resistant) bacteria cells .

In this article four samples of HgBa2Ca2Cu2.4Ag0.6O8+δ were prepared and irradiated with different doses of gamma radiation 6, 8 and 10 Mrad. The effects of gamma irradiation on structure of HgBa2Ca2Cu2.4Ag0.6O8+δ samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction. It was concluded that there effect on structure by gamma irradiation. Scherrer, crystallization, and Williamson equations were applied based on the X-ray diffraction diagram and for all gamma doses, to calculate crystal size, strain, and degree of crystallinity. I
