Bacterial infection is the most common complication in wound healing, highlighting an urgent need for the development of innovative antibacterial technologies and treatments to address the growing threats posed by bacterial infections. Black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs), as a promising two-dimensional nanomaterial, have been utilized in treating infected wounds. However, BP's limited stability restricts its application. In this study, we enhance BP's stability and its antibacterial properties by anchoring gallium ions (Ga) onto BP's surface, creating a novel antibacterial platform. This modification reduces BP's electron density and enhances its antibacterial capabilities through a synergistic effect. Under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, the BP/Ga combination exerts antibacterial effects via photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), while also releasing Ga. The Ga employ a 'Trojan horse strategy' to disrupt iron metabolism, significantly boosting the antibacterial efficacy of the complex. This innovative material offers a viable alternative to antibiotics and holds significant promise for treating infected wounds and aiding skin reconstruction.
细菌感染是伤口愈合中最常见的并发症,这凸显出迫切需要开发创新的抗菌技术和治疗方法来应对细菌感染带来的日益严重的威胁。黑磷纳米片 (BPNSs) 作为一种很有前途的二维纳米材料,已被用于治疗感染性伤口。然而,BP 的有限稳定性限制了其应用。在这项研究中,我们通过将镓离子 (Ga) 锚定在 BP 的表面来提高 BP 的稳定性和抗菌性能,从而创建了一个新的抗菌平台。这种修饰通过协同作用降低了 BP 的电子密度并增强了其抗菌能力。在近红外 (NIR) 照射下,BP/Ga 组合通过光热疗法 (PTT) 和光动力疗法 (PDT) 发挥抗菌作用,同时释放 Ga。Ga 采用“木马策略”破坏铁代谢,显著提高了该复合物的抗菌效果。这种创新材料为抗生素提供了可行的替代品,有望用于治疗感染性伤口和辅助皮肤重建。
