“…Mesoporous silica which has a large specific surface area with highly ordered pores and a narrow pore size distribution has been widely used in the fields of separation, catalysis, drug delivery, and nanosensors, etc. − Due to its large surface area, porous structure, very good thermal stability, and hydrophilicity, silica has the potential to be prepared as a water treatment and antimicrobial material. There have been some reports about N-halamine-modified mesoporous silica antimicrobial materials. , The obtained mesoporous silica containing N-halamine moieties has good antibacterial activities.…”
