O2-Protected diazeniumdiolate-modified silica nanoparticles for extended nitric oxide release from dental composites

Abstract

O 2 -Protected N-diazeniumdiolate-based silanes were grafted onto mesoporous silica nanoparticles to yield a scaffold with an NO payload of 2.4 μmol NO per mg and NO release half-life of 23 d. Adhesion of Streptococcus mutans to dental restorative materials doped with these NO-releasing particles was reduced by 3-log compared to controls.
