A Zr-based metal-organic framework drug release system with long-lasting antibacterial behavior for accelerating wound healing.

Although various antibacterial strategies have been developed, antibiotic chemotherapy remains the primary clinical treatment for bacterial infections. To address the limitations associated with the traditional antibiotic therapy, like burst drug release, rapid drug clearance, and the emergence of drug resistance, it is highly desirable to develop drug release systems that can realize controlled and sustained drug release to enhance the therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we present a novel drug release system, CIP@SU-102, which shows superior and long-lasting antibacterial activity.
