The present invention discloses a
nitrogen mustard-synergistic
strontium ion antibacterial fabric, as well as its preparation method and use. An azo
drug, 4-(4-(bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)phenyl)diazenyl)-N-(3,4-dihydroxyphenylethyl)
benzamide, is prepared using
dopamine hydrochloride and N-phenyldiethanolamine. The
drug is then coordinated with
strontium ions on fabric fibers through in-situ growth to form nanoparticles. Upon contact with
bacteria, the functionally coated fabric releases
nitrogen mustard within the bacterial environment, forming a strong electrophilic alkylating agent within the cells. This covalently binds to
electron-rich groups in
DNA,
RNA, and some enzymes, deactivating them and killing the
bacteria. Furthermore, a large amount of
strontium ions slowly released from the antibacterial fabric can be adsorbed on the surface of bacterial
cell membranes, causing a
voltage difference between the inside and outside of the
cell membranes, weakening and rupturing the
cell membranes. The
strontium ions then enter the cells and hinder their formation and
metabolism, thereby achieving a synergistic
antibacterial effect.
