Description
Summary:Silver‐Gallium Nano–Amalgamated Particles In article number 2310539, Yunpeng Zhao, Krasimir Vasilev, Vi Khanh Truong, and co‐workers introduce a novel method for synthesizing silver–gallium (Ag–Ga) nano‐amalgamated particles to combat antibiotic‐resistant bacterial infections. Utilizing gallium liquid metal for the galvanic deposition of silver nanoclusters, this approach enhances silver's biocompatibility. Ag–Ga coatings show potent antibacterial activity against pathogens, while also promoting bone matrix formation and reducing inflammation. This strategy holds significant promise for biomedical coatings.
