Definitions
- the disclosure relates generally to antimicrobial resin compositions and methods for making such resins. More particularly, the disclosure is directed to methods of making antimicrobial resin compositions comprising antimicrobial metal salts and methods for forming such resins on substrates, such as medical devices.
- Silver and salts thereof are commonly used in antimicrobial coatings because of their demonstrated broad spectrum antimicrobial activity against various bacteria, viruses, yeast, fungi, and protozoa. It is theorized that the observed antimicrobial activity is primarily due to the ability of silver ions to tightly bind nucleophilic functional groups containing sulfur, oxygen or nitrogen. Many nucleophilic functional groups such as thiols, carboxylates, phosphates, alcohols, amines, imidazoles, and indoles are prevalent in biomolecules. Upon binding of ionized silver to these various nucleophilic functional groups, it is believed that widespread disruption and inactivation of microbial biomolecules (and thus antimicrobial activity) occurs.
- Silver and salts thereof have therefore been used as antimicrobial agents in a wide variety of applications; for example, they have been incorporated in the absorbent materials of wound care products such as dressings, gels, and bandages, and also in compositions for providing antimicrobial coatings on medical devices.
- Polymeric components frequently are added to such silver- or silver salt-containing compositions in order to facilitate manufacturing and/or deposition.
- One disadvantage of such antimicrobial compositions is their characteristic poor adhesion to substrate surfaces. Strong adhesion to surfaces is frequently desirable to maintain continued release of the antimicrobial agent over a period of time and to avoid loss of the antimicrobial coating by routine contact with a patient or healthcare worker.
- polymer-containing metal or metal salt compositions also exhibit unsatisfactory antimicrobial efficacy profiles.
- Various factors can contribute to undesirable efficacy profiles, such as poorly dispersed or settled particles of the metal or metal salt, deformation of the coating during curing, or decomposition of the metal or metal salt during subsequent sterilization treatments.
- Poor dispersion of the metal or metal salt in the composition can result in heterogeneous release of the metal or metal salt, while a well-dispersed metal or metal salt generally elutes from the composition according to more homogeneous spatial and/or temporal release profiles.
- heterogeneous crosslinked structure that can result, for example, from long polymer cure times and/or imprecise control of the polymer curing conditions.
- Long polymer cure times and/or imprecisely controlled polymer curing conditions can disadvantageously contribute to the formation of poorly dispersed or settled metals or metal salts, and thus can produce compositions having heterogeneous elution profiles.
- a disadvantage of antimicrobial compositions comprising metals instead of metal salts is their characteristic color/opaqueness, which prevents a healthcare provider from being able to see through the medical device substrate.
- Silver coatings for example, are generally brown in color. Thus, when silver coatings are applied to transparent surfaces, the coated surfaces typically have a brown color and significantly diminished transparency. In contrast to coatings comprising metallic silver, many coatings comprising silver salts are transparent or translucent, and/or lack a colored appearance. Thus, when silver salt coatings are applied to transparent surfaces, the coated surfaces typically have little color and are highly transparent.
- the present disclosure is directed to methods for forming antimicrobial resins.
- the methods include providing a mixture comprising a hydrophilic acrylic oligomer, a multifunctional acrylic monomer, an adhesion-promoting acrylic or vinyl monomer, and an antimicrobial metal salt; and exposing the mixture to a radiation source to cure at least a portion of the mixture, thereby forming an antimicrobial resin.
- the methods further include forming medical devices or medical components comprising the antimicrobial resin.
- the antimicrobial resin can be applied to a substrate surface to form a coating on the substrate surface.
- a coating comprising an antimicrobial resin can be formed by providing the mixture on a substrate surface before exposing the mixture to the radiation source.
- the substrate surfaces can comprise plastics, glasses, metals, ceramics, elastomers, or mixtures or laminates thereof.
- the substrate surfaces can comprise surfaces of medical devices or medical device components. Preferred examples of substrate surfaces include polycarbonate medical devices.

- the antimicrobial metal salt can comprise various metals or mixtures of metals.
- Preferred metal salts include salts of silver, copper, gold, zinc, cerium, platinum, palladium, and tin.
- the radiation source can be an ultraviolet (UV) light source, an electron beam source, a gamma radiation source, an X-ray source, an ion beam source, a microwave source, a heat source, or other radiation sources.

- the present disclosure is directed to methods for forming antimicrobial resins.
- the methods involve providing a mixture comprising about 15 weight % to about 80 weight % of a hydrophilic acrylic oligomer, about 10 weight % to about 80 weight % of a multifunctional acrylic monomer, about 5 weight % to about 40 weight % of an adhesion-promoting acrylic or vinyl monomer, and about 0.1 weight % to about 15 weight % of an antimicrobial metal salt; and exposing the mixture to a radiation source to cure at least a portion of the mixture, thereby forming an antimicrobial resin.
- the methods further include forming medical devices or medical components comprising the antimicrobial resin.
- the antimicrobial resin can be applied to a substrate surface to form a coating on the substrate surface, hi some embodiments, the multifunctional acrylic monomer and the adhesion promoting acrylic or vinyl monomer can be the same compound.
- the present disclosure also is directed to methods for forming a coating comprising an antimicrobial resin.
- the methods involve providing a mixture comprising about 15 weight % to about 80 weight % of a hydrophilic acrylic oligomer, about 10 weight % to about 80 weight % of a multifunctional acrylic monomer, about 5 weight % to about 40 weight % of an adhesion-promoting acrylic or vinyl monomer, and about 0.1 weight % to about 15 weight % of an antimicrobial metal salt; providing the mixture on a substrate surface before exposing the mixture to a radiation source; and exposing the mixture to the radiation source to cure at least a portion of the mixture, thereby forming a coating comprising an antimicrobial resin.
- antimicrobial resins can advantageously improve the dispersion of the metal salt in the resin composition, prevent settling of the metal salt during the curing process, prevent deformation (e.g., shrinking) of the resin during the curing process, and/or produce more homogeneously crosslinked resins. Accordingly, antimicrobial resins prepared according the methods disclosed herein can display improved efficacy profiles. Furthermore, coatings comprising the antimicrobial resin can display increased adhesion to substrate surfaces. Accordingly, the disclosed methods can provide efficient methods for obtaining medical devices comprising a strongly adherent and/or more efficacious antimicrobial coating and, in general, more efficacious antimicrobial resins.
- antimicrobial resins and coatings thereof prepared by radiation curing in accordance with the present disclosure can advantageously be substantially transparent/translucent (upon visual inspection), i.e., generally lacking a colored appearance, despite including ionic metal that one of ordinary skill would expect to be reduced by the radiation used in the curing process, thereby forming the corresponding metal which generally causes the compositions to become colored.
- radiation curing of the antimicrobial resins of the present disclosure can beneficially obviate the need for downstream sterilization processing because the resin can be sterilized by radiation during the curing process.

Tubes containing 5 mL saline were inoculated with 0.1 mL (6.4 x 10 4 cfu) of the suspension.
