PVP-coated silver nanoparticles block the transmission of cell-free and cell-associated HIV-1 in human cervical culture

Background: Previous in vitro studies have demonstrated that polyvinylpyrrolidone coated silver nanoparticles (PVPcoated AgNPs) have antiviral activity against HIV-1 at non-cytotoxic concentrations. These particles also demonstrate broad spectrum virucidal activity by preventing the interaction of H...
