Polyhexamethylene biguanide functionalized cationic silver nanoparticles for enhanced antimicrobial activity
Polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), a broad spectrum disinfectant against many pathogens, was used as a stabilizing ligand for the synthesis of fairly uniform silver nanoparticles. The particles formed were characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy, FTIR, dynamic light scattering, electrophoretic mobility, and TEM to measure their morphology and surface chemistry. PHMB-functionalized silver n...
متن کاملBenefit of polyhexamethylene biguanide in Fusarium keratitis.
PURPOSE To report a series of 3 patients with soft contact lens-related Fusarium keratitis. Two of them were treated with the antiamoebic polyhexamethylene biguanide 0.02% (PHMB) in combination with antifungal drugs, and 1 patient was treated with PHMB as sole antifungal regimen. METHODS Chart review of 3 patients treated with PHMB in Fusarium keratitis. Two of them were refractory to the com...
متن کاملEvaluating a dressing impregnated with polyhexamethylene biguanide
Aims: To evaluate a new polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) foam dressing for inclusion in the specialist dressing section of a trust’s wound management formulary. Methods: KendallTM AMD (Covidien) antimicrobial foam dressing’s use was reviewed through a retrospective evaluation of patients who had been treated with the dressing. Data was collected from the medical and nursing notes of 25 patien...
متن کاملSynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Hydroxyl Functionalized Ionic Liquids and Their Antimicrobial Activity
We report a new one phase method for the synthesis of uniform monodisperse crystalline Ag nanoparticles in aqueous systems that has been developed by using newly synthesized mono and dihydroxylated ionic liquids and cationic surfactants based on 1,3-disubstituted imidazolium cations and halogens anions. The hydroxyl functionalized ionic liquids (HFILs) and hydroxyl functionalized cationic surfa...
متن کاملSequentially reduced biogenic silver-gold nanoparticles with enhanced antimicrobial potential over silver and gold monometallic nanoparticles
Bimetallic nanoparticles have emerged up as advanced nanomaterials due to the synergism between two metallic nanoparticles in core-shell or alloy arrangement. Moreover, bioinspired synthesis of nanoparticles is an evergreen approach of nanobiosciences. In this experiment, we have fabricated silver, gold and silver (core) gold (shell) bimetallic nanoparticles using leaf extract of Catharanthus r...
