▎ 摘  要

Antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains are a major cause of disease. They continue to remain a challenge in the clinic particularly in the vision system. For example, infectious endophthalmitis is a major blind-causing disease caused by bacteria. A highly efficient synergistic antibacterial treatment that uses a photothermal antibacterial therapeutic with a chemo-antibacterial therapeutic in a multifunctional nanocomposite is reported. It is prepared by immobilizing vancomycin onto the surface of a magnetic chitosan-graphene (VCM-MCG) composite. An antibacterial effect is achieved when VCM-MCG is applied. This effect is enhanced when the nanocomposites are irradiated with a near-infrared laser. Growth of gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative Escherichia coli bacteria are suppressed efficiently. Such a composite can help manage the control of pathogenic bacteria growth in the clinic.
