Abstract
The present invention relates to novel antimicrobial silver ion complex resinates. More particularly, the present invention contemplates silver ion complex resinate compositions comprising a silver-thiosulfate ion complex loaded onto an organic anion exchange resin. These silver thiosulfate ion complex resinate compositions are able to release stable antimicrobial silver ion complexes when placed in a saline environment. These antimicrobial silver-ion complex resinates are useful in the treatment and prevention of infections and diseases.
Claims28
A composition, comprising a silver thiosulfate ion complex bound to an anion exchange resin.
A method of attaching silver thiosulfate ion complexes on a resin comprising:
- a) providing;
- i) an anion exchange resin, and
- ii) an aqueous solution of silver thiosulfate ion complexes;
- and
- b) introducing said resin to said solution under conditions such that at least a portion of said complexes attaches to said resin to form a partially loaded resinate.
