Photo/Magnetic Thermal Fe2SiO4/Fe3O4 Biphasic Bioceramic and Its Composite Electrospun Membrane: Preparation and Antibacterial

doi:10.15541/jim20210659

Abstract

Abstract:

Biomaterials with both antibacterial and tissue repair activity have promising applications in the field of regenerative medicine. Both photothermal and magnetothermal-based techniques have antimicrobial effects, but the limited penetration capacity of light and the low thermal conversion efficiency of magnetothermal reagents limit their applications in biomedical fields. Here, we synthesized Fe₂SiO₄/Fe₃O₄ biphasic composite bioceramic powders, which not only display good photothermal and magnetothermal effects, but also effectively release active Fe and silicate ions, and prepared electrospun membranes by combining ceramic powders with gelatin/polycaprolactone, which not only exhibit good cytocompatibility, but also, importantly, possess both photothermal and magnetothermal properties. The composite membranes, under conditions of being irradiated with near-infrared light (808 nm, 0.36 W·cm^-2) and placed in alternating magnetic field (506 kHz, 837 A·m^-1) for 15 min simultaneously, are able to inhibit bacterial activity more effectively than the thermal treatment with near-infrared light or magnetic field alone. Therefore, this Fe-Si-based bioceramic and its composite material with photothermal, magnetothermal, antimicrobial, and biocompatible properties, have potential application in the field of regenerative medicine.
