RESUMEN

Rice husks are well known for their high silica content, and the RH-derived silica nanoparticles (RH NPs) are amorphous and biocompatible; therefore, they are suitable raw materials for biomedical applications. In this study, rose bengal-impregnated rice husk nanoparticles (RB-RH NPs) were prepared for their potential photosensitization and 1O2 generation as antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation. RB is a halogen-xanthene type's photosensitizer showing high singlet oxygen efficiency, and the superior photophysical properties are desirable for RB in the antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation of bacteria. To enhance the binding of anionic RB to RH NPs, we conducted cationization for the RH NPs using polyethyleneimine (PEI). The control of the RB adsorption state on cationic PEI-modified RH NPs was essential for RB RH-NP photosensitizers to obtain efficient 1O2 generation. Minimizing RB aggregation allowed highly efficient 1O2 production from RB-RH NPs at the molar ratio of RB with the PEI, XRB/PEI. = 0.1. The RB-RH NPs have significant antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus mutans compared to free RB after white light irradiation. The RB-RH NP-based antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation can be employed effectively in treating Streptococcus mutans for dental applications.
