- Abstract
Infection caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria is serious threat for public health, and calls for novel antibacterial agents with versatile functions. In particular, nanomaterial is one of promising candidates to fight the increasing antibiotic resistance crisis. Here, we synthesized distinct Fe
3 O4 @MoS2 @SDS nanocomposites by ultrasonication assisted SDS coating on the Fe3 O4 @MoS2 . Photothermal investigation indicated that the Fe3 O4 @MoS2 @SDS showed excellent and stable photothermal performance and could be a NIR-induced photothermal reagent. It also displayed superior disinfection ability of Escherichia coli (E. coli), Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and in vivo wound healing ability with the help of NIR irradiation. According to the results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and radical capture tests, plenty of superoxide, hydroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen and living cell reactive oxygen species can be observed under NIR irradiation. Besides, the synergistic effect Fe3 O4 @MoS2 @SDS and NIR irradiation eradicated almost all the biofilms of MRSA, so this kind of function enhanced the disinfection ability of Fe3 O4 @MoS2 @SDS under NIR irradiation. Furthermore, its inhibition effect on antibiotic resistance gene dissemination was also investigated. As expected, the Fe3 O4 @MoS2 @SDS could efficiently and broadly block the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes which mediated by conjugative plasmids, and its blocking effect was better than that we have reported Fe3 O4 @MoS2 . Overall, our findings revealed that the Fe3 O4 @MoS2 @SDS could be a potential candidate for photothermal-photodynamic therapy and antibiotic resistance gene dissemination inhibition., (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier B.V.
