Tetracycline@Silver Ions-Functionalized Mesoporous Silica for High Bactericidal Activity at Ultra-Low Concentration

Abstract: The combined use of tetracycline and silver ions with the mesoporous drug-delivery carrier was a very effective strategy against susceptible and tetracycline-resistant Escherichia coli bacteria.

“…We suggest that this significant inhibitory effect, at a low concentration of 50 ppm, might be explained by a codelivery of silver ions and amoxicillin using multifunctional Amox 30 @HDOSNPs-Ag 1 + nanoparticles adsorbed on the peptidoglycan region of the bacteria outer membrane. This codelivery hypothesis is well sustained by other materials already reported in the literature and highlights the enormous biological potential of the nanoparticles synthesized here. It is obvious that other adjuvants and antibiotics might be used to even increase the bactericidal activity or tune nanoparticles’ properties for future biomedical applications.…”

“…Moreover, it should not be ignored that low pH also contributed to the dissolution balance between silver ions and silver compounds, which promoted the production of a large number of silver ions. Regarding this view, Bouchmella and co-workers 51 developed mesoporous silicon nanocomposites loaded with tetracycline and silver ions, where the release behavior was controlled by thermodynamic equilibrium. The acidic environment pushes the thermodynamic balance of silver toward the direction of silver release, thereby promoted the release of silver ions with high bactericidal activity.…”

“…Highly ordered mesoporous siliceous materials have been intensively investigated as supports for enzyme or protein immobilization and have also found applications in bioseparation, enzyme catalysis, biosensors, and drug delivery [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ]. Among them, Santa Barbara Amorphous material (SBA-15) [ 6 , 7 ] is the most widely used.…”
