Figure 2

UV-Vis spectra of small (a), medium (b), and large (c) original Ag NPs in suspensions (original) and supernatants from the postreaction mixture in which various amounts of chitin were reacted with the Ag NPs. Excess Ag NPs in the supernatant of the postreaction mixture decreased as the amount of chitin added increased.
