Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical dressings, in particular to a cobalt-doped manganese dioxide nanosphere (Co@MnO2 NPs) modified antibacterial gauze and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of functional medical materials.

[0002] Material research background

[0003] As an important part of wound care, medical dressings have undergone a transformation from simple protection to functional therapy. Traditional medical gauze is woven from natural cotton fibers and has good air permeability, liquid absorption and biocompatibility, making it one of the most widely used dressing materials in clinical applications. According to statistics, the global medical gauze market has exceeded 3 billion US dollars and is growing at an annual rate of 5-7%.

[0004] However, as a passive dressing, traditional gauze can only provide a physical barrier for protection and lacks active biological functions. In clinical use, gauze can easily become a breeding ground for bacteria, leading to a high wound infection rate of 15-25%, which seriously affects the quality of wound healing and the patient's recovery process. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), wound infection is one of the main reasons for prolonged hospital stays and increased medical costs. Manganese dioxide (MnO2) is an important transition metal oxide widely used in catalysis, energy storage, environmental governance and other fields. In recent years, MnO2 nanomaterials have gradually attracted attention in the field of biomedicine. Manganese is an essential trace element for the human body and is involved in the composition of various enzyme systems. Compared to metals such as silver and copper, manganese has better biocompatibility and lower cytotoxicity. In vivo studies have shown that appropriate amounts of MnO2 nanomaterials do not cause significant tissue toxicity. Metal ion doping is an effective strategy to improve the performance of MnO2. By introducing other metal ions, the electronic structure, surface properties and catalytic activity of MnO2 can be adjusted. Commonly used doping ions include Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Fe3+, etc. The Co-doped MnO2 nanosphere modified antibacterial gauze prepared in the present application combines multiple sterilization mechanisms, significantly improving the antibacterial effect. Therefore, gauze with a lower Co@MnO2 NPs density can be used, reducing the toxicity of Co-doped MnO2 nanospheres and improving the biological safety of the gauze. SUMMARY

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a nanosphere material with multiple enzyme activities and photothermal properties, i.e. a preparation method for Co-doped MnO2 nanosphere (Co@MnO2 NPs) modified antibacterial gauze (Co@MnO2 Gauze) and its application in the preparation of antibacterial gauze, providing a simple and effective strategy for the functional modification of medical dressings.

[0064] The Co@MnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) prepared by the application have regular and stable urchin-like morphology, the Co@MnO2 NPs have OXD and CAT enzyme activities, and exhibit excellent photothermal performance, the gauze modified by the Co@MnO2 NPs is endowed with good antibacterial performance, and the Co@MnO2 gauze can be used as antibacterial dressing for ordinary wounds, burn infection wounds, pressure sores, diabetes and other acute and chronic wound surfaces.

[0065] The application further discloses application of the Co@MnO2 gauze in preparation of antibacterial dressing.

[0066] Compared with the prior art, the application has the beneficial effects as follows:

[0067] The application prepares the antibacterial gauze modified by Co-doped MnO2 nanospheres, and the product has simple preparation method and uniform morphology.

[0068] The potassium permanganate in the application will oxidize ordinary gauze, and a stable coating of manganese compound is formed on the surface of the gauze. On this basis, urchin-like nanoparticles are formed in situ on the surface of the gauze. The nanoparticles endow the gauze with good OXD and CAT enzyme activity. In the early stage of wound healing, the gauze can kill bacteria in a slightly acidic environment through OXD enzyme activity to produce ROS. In the inflammation recovery process, the CAT enzyme activity can convert excess ROS in the wound into oxygen, achieving the purpose of anti-inflammatory and solving the problem of local hypoxia in the wound, and promoting the healing of the wound in the later stage. At the same time, the gauze modified by the nanoparticles has excellent photothermal performance, and can kill bacteria through photothermal physical sterilization, further enhancing the antibacterial effect. In addition, the Co-doped MnO2 nanospheres on the surface of the gauze have urchin-like morphology, and can kill bacteria through the special urchin-like structure, showing excellent multi-mode and multi-functional antibacterial effect. Therefore, the Co@MnO2 NPs modified antibacterial gauze has a wide application prospect in the preparation of antibacterial dressings.

[0069] The Co-doped MnO2 nanospheres modified antibacterial gauze prepared in the application combines multiple sterilization mechanisms, significantly improves the antibacterial effect, and therefore can use gauze with a lower Co@MnO2 NPs density, reduces the toxicity of Co-doped MnO2 nanospheres, and improves the biological safety of the gauze.

[0099] To further verify the antibacterial ability of Co@MnO2 Gauze in vivo, BALB / c mice were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 5): (I) Control, (II) Co@MnO2 Gauze + NIR. After the back hair was shaved, the mice were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital. A sterile scalpel was used to draw a circular wound about 9 mm in diameter on the skin. The MRSA suspension (40 μL, 109 CFU mL-1) was applied to the wound and allowed to dry naturally. Six hours later, Co@MnO2 Gauze was covered on the wound of the mice and irradiated using NIR. Two treatments were performed immediately after modeling and two days later. At different time periods, especially on days 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7, the wound was photographed using a digital camera. As shown in FIG. 8, the healing rate of the infected wound treated with Co@MnO2 Gauze irradiated with near-infrared light was significantly improved compared with the control group. Figure 10

[0100] Experimental Example 11

[0101] To further verify the biosafety of Co@MnO2 Gauze, a related hemolysis experiment was performed. 0.5 mL of freshly drawn mouse blood was poured into a test tube preloaded with heparin sodium as an anticoagulant. 10 mL of normal saline was added to the test tube, and the test tube was shaken to mix evenly. The mixed test tube was centrifuged at 1200 r / min for 15 min. After centrifugation, the supernatant was discarded, and the red blood cells were washed three times with normal saline. The red blood cells were dispersed in normal saline to prepare a 2% mass concentration of red blood cell suspension. Co@MnO2 NPs were dissolved in normal saline, and 800 μL of the above nanomaterial solution of different concentrations, 800 μL of normal saline, and 800 μL of deionized water were taken as the experimental group, the negative control group, and the positive control group, respectively. 200 μL of red blood cell suspension was added to each preheated test tube. The test tube containing red blood cells was placed back in a 37°C constant temperature water bath for further incubation for 4 hours. After incubation, all test tubes were centrifuged at 1200 r / min for 15 min. After centrifugation, the supernatant in each test tube was carefully taken out. The absorbance value of the supernatant was measured at a wavelength of 577 nm to evaluate the degree of hemolysis. As shown in FIG. 9, when the concentration of Co@MnO2 NPs reached 10 μg / mL, no significant hemolysis of red blood cells was observed. Figure 11
