Antibiotics, being critical antimicrobial agents, have been widely used for treating bacterial infections. However, prolonged use of antibiotics can induce drug resistance resulting in "superbug" that threatens human health. Therefore, developing antibiotic-free materials with intrinsic antibacterial properties is the key to the "superbug" challenge. In this study, two highly efficient metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were successfully assembled through synergistic use of the antibacterial properties of reactive organic radicals and silver (Ag) cations. These hybrid Ag-based materials possessed radical-doped characteristics, continuously releasing Ag |
