“…[22][23][24][25][26][27] Conventionally, silver NPs are immobilized onto or embedded into MSNs to avoid the aggregation of silver NPs. 28,29 Thus, these nanocarriers slowly release silver ions, leading to enhanced efficacy against bacteria. 30,31 In addition, MSNs with entrapped CHX can exhibit sustainable CHX release behavior and inhibit bacterial growth while maintaining their surface integrity.…”

“…Therefore, it is highly desirable to introduce antimicrobial agents into implant surfaces to provide antibacterial activities and prevent peri-implant infections [13][14][15][16][17]. In comparison with organic antibiotics, inorganic antibacterial metal elements (e.g., silver (Ag) [18][19][20][21][22], copper (Cu) [23][24][25][26] and zinc (Zn) [27][28][29]) have attracted great attention due to their perfect stabilities, superior broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, relatively low toxicity to human cells and low risk of producing resistant strains [30,31].…”

“…Moreover, MSNs hold great potential in order to integrate therapeutic and diagnostic functions (such as imaging contrasting agents) within a single system to create unique structures . In this context, various nanocomposites (e.g., MSN–magnetic NPs, MSN–quantum dots, MSN–silver NPs, MSN–gold nanoparticles, and MSN–upconversion NPs) designed/fabricated for different applications that can be also used in the treatment of bacterial infection. It should be emphasized that the core of the MS can serve not only as imaging tool but also acts as therapeutic function.…”
