Using nanomaterials is a novel strategy to eliminate drug resistance against bacteria. Nanoparticles with metal sites show antimicrobial activities that counteract or obstruct antibiotic-resistant mechanisms expressed by the pathogens. Here, a nanocomposite based on mesoporous silica nanoparticles with active sites of silver, and a combination of imipenem and meropenem as antibiotic drugs, was synthesized and characterized using different physicochemical methods. The antibacterial assessments exhibited sensitivity by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) toward the synthesized composite, which showed a suitable safety profile in human cells. This composite has an excellent synergic mechanism based on reactive oxygen species (ROS) to kill bacteria due to penetrating the microbial membrane. In addition, this composite is resistant to hydrolysis by plasmids and chromosomally mediated β-lactamases. This nanocomposite showed extraordinary antiseptic power against Gram-positive and Gram-negative microbes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
