Abstract: The present disclosure comprises antimicrobial compositions and devices comprising silver compounds that resist heat and light discoloration. In one aspect, the said compounds comprise silver and at least one s-triazine ring or moiety. In another aspect, the antimicrobial compositions are hydrogels that are effective against broad spectrum of common pathogens including MRSA and VRE and are suitable for treating human or animal wounds and burns. The methods of the present disclosure comprise treating medical and non-medical devices and articles with compositions comprising the silver compounds to impart antimicrobial property.
Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to antimicrobial compounds that include silver (Ag) and an s-triazine ring with substitutions at nitrogen or carbon atoms of the s-triazine ring. In one example, the antimicrobial silver s-triazine may be readily incorporated in a variety of compositions and devices in both medical and non-medical settings. In another example, the said compounds may possess broad spectrum antimicrobial activity against bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microbes.
