The paper analyses the effect of silver nanoparticles on structural integrity of erythrocytes in hemolysis depending on nanoparticle size and morphology. It is shown than smaller nanoparticles might cause erythrocyte destruction while chloride ions seem to slow down such a process.

Keywords: silver metal nanoparticles, erythrocyte, toxicity, hemolisys, FRAP method.
