Abstract: A 2D TMD nanosheet functionalized with an amphiphilic block polymer compound of the present disclosure has scavenging activity for intracellular and mitochondrial ROS and the scavenging activity is maintained well at low pH, and further, inhibits the excessively increased secretion of inflammatory cytokines in microbial infection, exhibits antibacterial activity, and can increase survivability and prevent aggravation of symptoms in an animal model of sepsis, it can be provided as an anti-inflammatory/antioxidant agent for prevention and treatment of sepsis and septic shock.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for synthesizing antioxidant materials based on transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) compounds and a technology of preparing a composition using the same. The monolayer TMDs functionalized with an amphiphilic block polymer compound and which is stably dispersed in an aqueous solution are prepared by two methods. The thus prepared monolayer TMDs were proven to exhibit excellent and sustained antioxidant effects and excellent stability to light and heat.
