Self-sterilizing ormosils surfaces based on photo-synzthesized silver nanoparticles

Abstract: Medical device-related infections represent a major healthcare complication, resulting in potential risks for the patient. Antimicrobial materials comprise an attractive strategy against bacterial colonization and biofilm proliferation. However, in most cases these materials are only bacteriostatic or bactericidal, and consequently they must be used in combination with other antimicrobials in order to reach the eradication condition (no viable microorganisms). In this study, a straightforward and robust antiba… Show more

“…As the reduced POM (POM Red ) and the oxidized POM (POM Ox ) are of different colors, the wearer would therefore have a simple indicator or warning of the presence of the CWA [20][21][22]. Ormosils have been shown to be excellent hosts for trapping nanoparticles of metals [35,36] [39]. Organicallymodified silicates (Ormosils) are organic-inorganic materials formed by the hydrolysis and condensation of organically-modified silanes with traditional alkoxide precursors.…”

“…In coatings with dense polymer structure, or with hydrophobic properties, limited contact with aqueous medium reduced overall Ag release and its speed, resulting in more durable Ag release.Biomedical implants represent an important application of such coatings, where burst release and almost complete depletion of antimicrobial material is preferable.Coatings that impeded Ag release, either by covalent attachment, electrostatic interactions, control of silver species’ oxidation state, or by imposing a physical barrier, such as additional polymer layers of controlled porosity.In this group, 43 papers (38%) were found that employed different strategies to limit Ag release from AMC in the interest of prolonging the antibacterial effect. Several papers described coatings where Ag was encapsulated in complex structures, such as core-shells (Ho et al, 2013; Gonçalves et al, 2018), carbon nanotubes (Hao et al, 2017), etc. Another approach was to provide electrostatic interactions such as coordinating Ag ions and NPs with thiol groups (Gehring et al, 2015), while other researchers introduced functional molecules (e.g., aminosilane linker) to enable covalent binding of Ag NPs (Gomez-Carretero, Nybom & Richter-Dahlfors, 2017).…”

“…The main disadvantage is requirement of special arrangement for doing this photo assisted synthesis. Goncalves et al [37] had synthesized AgNPs as coating along with other materials by photo assisted approach. This coated material shows an excellent antibacterial activity due to AgNPs.…”
