Antimicrobial silver ion complex resinates

摘要

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.
