- Abstract
To fight the flourishment of drug-resistant bacteria caused by antibiotics and the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), it is of great urgency to develop multifunctional non-antibiotic agents with residual antibiotics elimination, and ARGs dissemination inhibition properties. Herein, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was modified onto the surface of Fe
2 O3 @MoS2 by ultrasonic method to obtain the Z-scheme, multifunctional Fe2 O3 @MoS2 @SDS nanocomposites. The Fe2 O3 @MoS2 @SDS (weight ratio of Fe2 O3 @MoS2 and SDS was 1:1) was selected as the optimal agent. Under NIR irradiation, the Fe2 O3 @MoS2 @SDS had a photothermal conversion efficiency of 45.96%, and could generate plenty of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at the same time. Under the synergy of photothermal and photodynamic, the antibacterial efficiency of Fe2 O3 @MoS2 @SDS to E. coli, MRSA and P. aeruginosa could reach 99.95%, 99.97% and 99.58%, respectively, indicating excellent photothermal-photodynamic therapy (PPT) effect. The Fe2 O3 @MoS2 @SDS also displayed photocatalytic activity in degradation of tetracycline (TC). The degradation rate of TC could reach 92.3% after 2 h of visible light irradiation. The obtained results indicated that a promising Fe2 O3 @MoS2 @SDS composite based multifunctional nanoplatform could be constructed for NIR induced bacterial inactivation, antibiotics degradation and ARGs dissemination inhibition., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier B.V.
