Abstract
Bacterial infections can cause many human diseases, which are closely related to people's health. Nowadays, antibiotics are mainly used to treat bacterial infections, but the widespread use of antibiotics can also lead to bacterial resistance. Therefore, effective treatment of bacterial infections is an urgent problem to be solved. In this article, a multifunctional therapeutic material with antibacterial properties was designed and synthesized. First, the porous media material ZIF-8 was synthesized, and applied to load hesperidin. When the load is completed, a layer of hyaluronic acid (HA) is uniformly wrapped on surface of the material. Such materials have high stability and high drug-carrying capacity, and can be slowly released in vivo. The HA coated on surface can also promote penetration of active ingredients into cells and give full play to antibacterial ability. Results of in vitro and in vivo antibacterial tests show that synergy between the materials enhances antibacterial activity which is related to dose. The material achieves high-efficiency antibacterial effects by increasing the permeability of cell membranes and destroying the integrity of bacteria. At same time, the material does not show obvious side effects. Therefore, the material seems to be a promising antibacterial agent with good biocompatibility and strong antibacterial activity.
