Targeting biofilms of multidrug-resistant bacteria with silver oxynitrate
Abstract
A topical antimicrobial, silver oxynitrate (Ag7NO11), has recently become available that exploits the antimicrobial activity of ionic silver but has enhanced activity because highly oxidised silver atoms are stabilised with oxygen in a unique chemical formulation. The objective of this study was to use a multifaceted approach to characterise the spectrum of antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity of a wound dressing coated with Ag7NO11 at a …
