Abstract
Osmium(bpy)complex coordinated with metal-organic framework UiO-67-bpy, photodynamic effect was studied in detail against pathogenic bacteria, under Near-IR (800-810 nm) irradiation. Structural analysis, including XRD, FTIR, and XPS, confirmed successful synthesis of the composite, highlighting Os-N ligation characterized by distinct peak at 623 cmwith a slight red shift, and electronic modifications of N in XPS. Os(bpy)/UiO-67-bpy (UOsCb) composite demonstrated significantly enhanced photodynamic antibacterial efficacy, with 10.4 % bacterial viability (89.6 % inhibition) against Gram (+) S. aureus after just 5 min of irradiation. However, against Gram (-) E.coli the % viability was 33.4 % (66.6 % inhibition). Mechanistic studies revealed that UOsCb induced significantly higher 2.7 fold ROS (OH) generation compared to the bare Os-complex (1.37 fold) and UiO-67-bpy (1.2 fold), which play crucial role in photodynamic antibacterial efficacy. In vivo, UOsCb under Near-IR light significantly accelerated wound healing in S. aureus-infected models, achieving 90 % recovery within six days, compared to dark (45 %). Cytotoxicity (14.6 % over 48 h) and hemolysis (1.6 %) assays confirmed its excellent biocompatibility even at high concentrations (128 μM). This Near-IR-activated Type-I PSs offers promising alternative for antibacterial therapy, and novel platform for developing advanced heterojunction materials for biomedical applications.
