Regulation of the Diameter and Length of Silver Nanowires and Their Therapeutic Effect on Postmenopausal Osteoporosis

Abstract

Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a systemic bone metabolic disease occurring in postmenopausal women. In this research, silver nanowires (Ag NWs) with different sizes were synthesized via poly-process synthesis by using different control agents and then characterized by scanning electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. Their application values in postmenopausal osteoporosis were evaluated, and the related mechanism was explored.
