To remove the toxic effect of AgNPs, a modified Tollens process involving reduction of the cation [Ag(NH3)2] + can be used for synthesis of AgNPs to reduce the toxicity of AgNPs, this is traditionally done by reducing silver ions (Ag + ) to metallic silver (Ag) using reducing agents like Glucose and Ammonia. However, this can only reduce the toxicity of AgNPs to a certain limit. . The above explanation is summarized in Table .
