Article Silver-Loaded Titania-Based Metal-Organic Frameworks as a Platform for Silver Ion Release for Antibacterial Applications(American Chemical Society, 2025) Mazare, Anca; Goldmann, Wolfgang Heinrich; Kocak, Esra; Osuagwu, Benedict; Qin, Shanshan; Cao, Ran; Schmuki, PatrikConventional Ag-decorated TiO<inf>2</inf>coatings suffer from low adsorption capacity and burst release kinetics, limiting long-term antibacterial efficacy and risking cytotoxicity. An entirely different payload release approach can be based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), which offer tunable porosity, high surface area, and internal diffusion channels. Here, we report a thermally stabilized Ti-based MOF [NH<inf>2</inf>-MIL-125(Ti)] functionalized with Ag+via reactive deposition, enabling high Ag loading (∼14.7 wt %) and sustained release. Annealing at 250 °C enhances aqueous stability, allowing diffusion-governed Ag+delivery over >48 h, with 77% of the Ag still present in the MOF after a 24 h release. The system exhibits dose-dependent antibacterial activity in powders and comparable efficacy in coatings, with a more gradual release profile. This scalable platform is promising for long-acting coatings, wound interfaces, and implantable materials. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 23Surface Free Energy and Wettability Properties of Transparent Conducting Oxide-Based Films With Ag Interlayer(Elsevier, 2021) Özbay, Salih; Erdoğan, Nursev; Erden, Fuat; Ekmekçioğlu, Merve; Rakop, Büşra; Özdemir, Mehtap; Aygün, Gülnur; Özyüzer, LütfiITO, ZTO, AZO and Ag are commonly used in transparent conducting oxide (TCO)/metal/TCO electrodes to form multilayered thin films on a suitable substrate. A detailed surface free energy (SFE) knowledge of these films is critical to design desirable TCO-based sandwich structures. In this study, TCO/Ag/TCO multilayer thin films were coated onto glass substrates using ITO, ZTO, AZO and Ag targets by magnetron sputtering. The wettability properties of TCO, Ag interlayer and TCO/Ag/TCO were evaluated by contact angle measurements of seven different liquids having various surface tension values. The dispersive and polar components of SFE were calculated using geometric and harmonic mean approaches. The acidic and basic components of SFE were calculated using van Oss-Chaudhury-Good method. Following this, the work of adhesion values between TCO films and Ag interlayer were estimated using SFE values of the films. The results show that the SFE components of the surfaces differ depending on the TCO type, the total SFE values of TCO/Ag/TCO films were lower than that of TCO films, and AZO/Ag adhesion is stronger than the other TCO/Ag structures. The reasons behind these differences were discussed by evaluating the SFE, XRD, AFM and SEM analysis simultaneously.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13Single Step Sol-Gel Made Silver Chloride on Titania Xerogels To Inhibit E. Coli Bacteria Growth: Effect of Preparation and Chloride Ion on Bactericidal Activity(Springer Verlag, 2011) Tuncer, Mert; Şeker, ErolWe report the antibacterial efficacies of silver and/or silver chloride containing titania xerogels synthesized with modified single step sol-gel methods against Escherichia coli bacteria. As the silver loading in TiO 2 increases, the amount of the xerogel required to inhibit the growth of the bacteria decreases and also we found that pure TiO2 was not bactericidal. Among modified single step sol-gel methods used in this study, the additional HCl treatment sol-gel route III was very effective to obtain only AgCl crystallites in TiO2. Based on viable cell count method, 0.125 g/L of 29%Ag/TiO2 (made with HNO3 sol-gel route I) was enough to inhibit the growth of E. coli whereas 0.6 g/L of 29%Ag/TiO2 (made with the additional HCl treatment sol-gel route III) was required. However, antibacterial activity of 29%Ag/TiO2 (made with HNO 3 sol-gel route I) after 6 usages was the same as 29%Ag/TiO 2 (made with the additional HCl treatment sol-gel route III).Article Citation - WoS: 249Citation - Scopus: 268Silver, Zinc, and Copper Exchange in a Na-Clinoptilolite and Resulting Effect on Antibacterial Activity(Elsevier Ltd., 2004) Top, Ayben; Ülkü, SemraAg+-Na+, Zn2+-Na+, and Cu2+-Na+ equilibria for clinoptilolite-rich mineral from Gördes (Western Anatolia) were investigated at 25 °C and 0.1 N total solution normality. While silver exchange was favorable over the whole concentration range, zinc and copper were partially exchanged and preferred only at low concentrations. The standard free energies of exchanges for Ag+-Na+, Zn2+-Na+, and Cu2+-Na+ pairs were found as -6.0, 2.03, and 3.09 kJ/equiv., respectively. From these values, selectivity sequence was determined as Ag+>Na+ >Zn2+>Cu2+. Antibacterial activities of the exchanged samples were measured as a function of exchange level against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Considering the selectivity sequence of the clinoptilolite and antibacterial activity results, Ag-clinoptilolite seemed to be promising antibacterial material.
