- This paper reports how the controlled release of antibacterial silver ions can be actively managed through the topological design of a material to design, engineer and create different structures from the same starting reagents. This aspect is important considering toxicity versus lack of efficacy through the release of too much or too little silver. Understanding the solubility of materials and release of active compounds is essential to creating safe but effective new antimicrobial treatments and devices where controlled release of therapeutics is desired. This work builds on previously reported research within a multinational / multi-institutional collaboration.
