Hybrid Silver(I)-Doped Soybean Oil and Potato Starch Biopolymer Films to Combat Bacterial Biofilms.

ABSTRACT: This study describes the preparation, characterization, and antimicrobial properties of novel hybrid biopolymer materials doped with bioactive silver(I) coordination polymers (bioCPs). Two new bioCPs, [Ag₂(μ₆-hfa)]_n (1) and [Ag₂(μ₄-nda)(H₂O)₂]_n (2), were assembled from Ag₂O and homophthalic (H₂hfa) or 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic (H₂nda) acids as unexplored building blocks. Their structures feature 2D metal-organic and supramolecular networks with 3,6L64 or sql topology. Both compounds act as active antimicrobial agents for producing bioCP-doped biopolymer films based on epoxidized soybean oil acrylate (SBO) or potato starch (PS) as model biopo
