Antibacterial properties of silver-loaded gelatin sponges prepared with silver diamine fluoride.
Abstract
<h4>Purpose</h4>To evaluate the antibacterial efficiency of silver-loaded gelatin sponges prepared from gelatin and silver diamine fluoride, Ag(NH3)2F.<h4>Methods</h4>A series of novel silver-loaded gelatin sponges were prepared from gelatin and silver diamine fluoride. They were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The antibacterial activities against one oral bacteria model S. mutans were evaluated using the agar disk diffusion method and biofilm-grown bacteria assay. For the purpose of comparison, a second series of silver-loaded sponges were prepared using silver nitrate (AgNO3) as the silver source.<h4>Results</h4>FT-IR, SEM and EDX results confirmed the successful preparation of silver-loaded gelatin sponges from both silver diamine fluoride and silver nitrate. Agar disk diffusion assays revealed that the antibacterial activity of silver-loaded sponges was strongly correlated with the silver content, and also depending on the silver source used in the preparation of sponges. Sustained inhibition of S. mutans in agar plates was observed for silver-loaded gelatin sponges containing about 5 wt% Ag or more. Biofilm assays showed different viabilities when treated with different formulations, with the viability of 11.4±3.1% for the sponges containing 5.30±1.18 wt% Ag prepared from silver diamine fluoride, and the viability of 15.4±3.1% for the sponges containing 29.13±10.34 wt% Ag prepared from silver nitrate.<h4>Clinical significance</h4>The silver loading contents had a significant effect on the antibacterial activities of silver-loaded gelatin sponges prepared with silver diamine fluoride. In addition, silver diamine fluoride was a superior silver source to prepare antibacterial silver-loaded gelatin sponges when compared with silver nitrate.
