description | Due to the abuse of antibiotics, the sensitivity of patients to antibiotics is gradually reduced. This work develops a Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub>@Au/PDA nanochain which shows an interesting magnetic-field-induced improvement of its photothermal antibacterial property. First, SiO<sub>2</sub> was wrapped on Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> nanospheres assembled in a chain to form a Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub> nanocomposite with a chain-like nanostructure. Then, the magnetic Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub>@Au/PDA nanochains were prepared using in situ redox-oxidization polymerization. Under the irradiation of an 808 nm NIR laser, the temperature rise of the Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub>@Au/PDA nanochain dispersion was obvious, indicating that they possessed a good photothermal effect. Originating from the Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, the Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub>@Au/PDA nanochain showed a typical soft magnetic behavior. Both the NIR and magnetic field affected the antimicrobial performance of the Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub>@Au/PDA nanochains. <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> were used as models to verify the antibacterial properties. The experimental results showed that the Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>@SiO<sub>2</sub>@Au/PDA nanochains exhibited good antibacterial properties under photothermal conditions. After applying a magnetic field, the bactericidal effect was further significantly enhanced. The above results show that the material has a broad application prospect in inhibiting the growth of bacteria. |
