Ag Nanoparticles Cluster with pH‐Triggered Reassembly in Targeting Antimicrobial Applications
Abstract
Antibacterial efficiency can be effectively improved by applying targeting antibacterial materials and strategies. Herein, the successful synthesis of uniform pH‐responsive Ag nanoparticle clusters (AgNCs) is demonstrated, which can collapse and reassemble into nonuniform Ag NPs upon exposure to the acidic microenvironment of bacterial infections. This pH triggered reassembly contributes greatly to the improved antibacterial activities of AgNCs against both methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). The minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration against MRSA are as low as 4 and 32 µg mL−1 (which are 8 and 32 µg mL−1 for E. coli), respectively. In vivo skin wound healing experiments confirm AgNCs can serve as an effective wound dressing to accelerate the healing of MRSA infection. The development of responsive AgNCs offers new materials and strategies in targeting antibacterial applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
