Abstract
The abuse of antibiotics leads to an increasing emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, which not only causes a waste of medical resources but also seriously endangers people's health and life safety. Therefore, it is highly desirable to develop an efficient antibacterial strategy to reduce the reliance on traditional antibiotics. Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is regarded as an intriguing antimicrobial method that is less likely to generate drug resistance, but its efficiency still needs to be further improved. Herein, a robust titanium-based metal-organic framework ACM-1 was adopted to support Ag nanoparticles (NPs) to obtain Ag NPs@ACM-1 for boosting antibacterial efficiency via synergistic chemical-photodynamic therapy. Apart from the intrinsic antibacterial nature, Ag NPs largely boost ROS production and thus improve aPDT efficacy. As a consequence, Ag NPs@ACM-1 shows excellent antibacterial activity under visible light illumination, and its minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) against E. coli, S. aureus, and MRSA are as low as 39.1, 39.1, and 62.5 μg mL-1, respectively. Moreover, to expand the practicability of Ag NPs@ACM-1, two (a dense and a loose) Ag NPs@ACM-1 films were readily fabricated by simply dispersing Ag NPs@ACM-1 into heated aqueous solutions of edible agar and sequentially cooling through heating or freeze-drying, respectively. Notably, these two films are mechanically flexible and exhibit excellent antibacterial activities, and their antimicrobial performances can be well retained in their recyclable and remade films. As agar is nontoxic, degradable, inexpensive, and ecosustainable, the dense and loose Ag NPs@ACM-1 films are potent to serve as recyclable and degradable antibacterial plastics and antibacterial dressings, respectively.

Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 13:1325103. [PMID: 38173793 PMCID: PMC10761495 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2023.1325103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) frequently features in dental restorative materials due to its favorable properties. However, its surface exhibits a propensity for bacterial colonization, and the material can fracture under masticatory pressure. This study incorporated commercially available RHA-1F-II nano-silver loaded zirconium phosphate (Ag-ZrP) into room-temperature cured PMMA at varying mass fractions. Various methods were employed to characterize Ag-ZrP. Subsequently, an examination of the effects of Ag-ZrP on the antimicrobial properties, biosafety, and mechanical properties of PMMA materials was conducted. The results indicated that the antibacterial rate against Streptococcus mutans was enhanced at Ag-ZrP additions of 0%wt, 0.5%wt, 1.0%wt, 1.5%wt, 2.0%wt, 2.5%wt, and 3.0%wt, achieving respective rates of 53.53%, 67.08%, 83.23%, 93.38%, 95.85%, and 98.00%. Similarly, the antibacterial rate against Escherichia coli registered at 31.62%, 50.14%, 64.00%, 75.09%, 86.30%, 92.98%. When Ag-ZrP was introduced at amounts ranging from 1.0% to 1.5%, PMMA materials exhibited peak mechanical properties. However, mechanical strength diminished beyond additions of 2.5%wt to 3.0%wt, relative to the 0%wt group, while PMMA demonstrated no notable cytotoxicity below a 3.0%wt dosage. Thus, it is inferred that optimal antimicrobial and mechanical properties of PMMA materials are achieved with nano-Ag-ZrP (RHA-1F-II) additions of 1.5%wt to 2.0%wt, without eliciting cytotoxicity.

Abstract
A novel synthetic approach was investigated for the preparation of nanoplatelets of mixed zirconium phosphate bis-phosphonomethyl glycine, ZPGly, by the reaction of a gel of nanocrystalline α-type zirconium phosphate with N,N-bis-phosphonomethyl glycine, H3Gly. The syntheses were carried out in the absence of hydrofluoric acid by changing both the reagent relative amounts and temperature. An H3Gly/Zr molar ratio >2 did not significantly improve the degree of crystallinity of the materials, while an increase of temperature from 80 °C to 120 °C improved the crystallinity; the best result was obtained with H3Gly/Zr molar ratio = 2 and with a temperature reaction of 120 °C. The sample consisted of nanoplatelets with the size in the range 20-40 nm, and it was successfully exfoliated by treatment with a solution of methylamine. By treatment of the ZPGly colloidal dispersions with HAuCl4, a color change from white to red-violet was observed, indicating the formation of gold nanoparticles. The size and morphology of the gold particles were affected by the degree of crystallinity and, in turn, by the composition of the ZPGly support. As a matter of fact, large micrometric Au particles with a cubo-octahedral morphology were obtained by using the less crystalline ZPGly_R2-80 sample, while interconnected Au particles, with a size of about 16 nm, were obtained by using ZPGly_R2-120. The samples exhibited an absorption maximum in the visible region due to the surface plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles.
