In recent years, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been applied in various
biomedicine fields like bioimaging, drug delivery, and antibacterial alternatives. MSNs could …

In this study, we exploit a facile, one-pot method to prepare MCM-41 type mesoporous silica
nanoparticles decorated with silver nanoparticles (Ag-MSNs). Silver nanoparticles with …

Antibiotic resistance has become a global threat to health due to abuse of antibiotics. Lots of
existing antibiotics have lost their effect on drug resistant bacteria. Moreover, the discovery …

To date, Ag-based nanomaterials have demonstrated a high potential to overcome antibiotic
resistance issues. However, bare Ag nanomaterials are prone to agglomeration in the …

Abstract Ultrasmall silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) are one of the emerging and highly efficient
antibacterial agents, owing to the unique features of sub-2 nm particle size and the high …

Drug-resistant bacterial infections have become one of the most serious risks in public
health as they make the conventional antibiotics less efficient. There is an urgent need for …

In this study, amine-functionalized hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles with an average
diameter of∼ 100 nm and shell thickness of∼ 20 nm were prepared by an one-step …

The interdisciplinary integration among material science, nanotechnology and biology has
been promoting the emergences of a large number of feasible nanoplatforms for diverse …

Combination of chlorhexidine (CHX) and silver ions could engender synergistic bactericidal
effect and improve the bactericidal efficacy. It is highly desired to develop an efficient carrier …

Bacterial infection has been a major threat to worldwide human health, in particular with the
