Definitions
- Plastic products with phosphors The invention relates to plastic products that contain a phosphor with antimicrobial properties and a plastic, as well as objects that include these plastic products and/or are made from them. Every day people are exposed to millions of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and viruses. Many of these microorganisms are useful or even necessary. Nevertheless, in addition to the more harmless representatives, there are also disease-causing or even deadly bacteria, fungi and viruses. Microorganisms can be transmitted through daily contact with other people and contact with objects that others have used. The antimicrobial finish of surfaces is particularly important in hygiene-sensitive areas. Areas of application are primarily surfaces of medical devices and commodities in hospitals and in outpatient health and social care facilities.
- DE 102005048131 A1 describes a plastic composition containing a thermoplastic elastomer and at least one active substance from the group of bis-(4-substituted-amino-1-pyridinium)-alkanes.
- This plastic composition shows an antimicrobial effect.
- the action of the composition is based on the release of the antimicrobial agent from the surface of the plastic composition into the environment. Even if the release rate is intended to be low, the release of the antimicrobial agent can endanger people and the environment.
- WO 2009/013016 A1 describes antimicrobial plastic products which contain silver orthophosphate or particles of partially reduced silver orthophosphate as the antimicrobially active component. The antimicrobial activity is believed to be due to the release of surface silver cations.
- the plastic used should have a low silver release plateau in order to avoid toxic effects. Even if the release rate is intended to be low, the release of the antimicrobial agent can endanger people and the environment. It is also known that titanium dioxide particles or other semiconductor particles with a matching band gap can produce antimicrobial agents when exposed to light. This exploits the fact that these particles generate radicals from atmospheric oxygen and (air) moisture under the influence of light with a wavelength that matches the band gap of the particles. These radicals can then diffuse to the bacteria or viruses and render them harmless through radical reactions. Here, the radicals generated represent the antimicrobial agents. Here, too, antimicrobial agents are released, which pose a risk to humans and environment can lead. Furthermore, titanium dioxide particles have recently been classified as "probably human carcinogenic", especially when inhaled.
- the generated singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) represents the antimicrobial agent.
- the semiconductor particles and dyes mentioned above have at least two major disadvantages when embedded in a plastic matrix. The active species that they can generate must leave the plastic matrix in order to come into contact with the microorganisms, which they can then kill. In this way, a chemical and not a purely physical path is taken again, on which the microorganisms are then killed. Therefore, such materials fall under the Biocidal Products Regulation (Regulation (EU), No.
- EU Biocidal Products Regulation
- the second disadvantage is the simple fact that such materials, when embedded in a plastic matrix, require diffusion processes to generate the antimicrobial agents.
- 3 O 2 must diffuse into the plastic matrix in order to reach the dye and 1 O 2 must in turn diffuse out of the plastic matrix in order to be able to interact with the microorganisms.
- the radicals generated by the semiconductor materials here, in addition to oxygen, water must also diffuse through the matrix.
- UV radiation in medicine or in hygiene, for example to disinfect water, gases or surfaces. UV radiation has long been used in drinking water treatment to reduce the number of potentially pathogenic microorganisms in the water.
- UV-C radiation also referred to as UVC radiation
- the use of electromagnetic radiation with different wavelengths should take into account the different absorption of the different proteins, the amino acids or nucleic acids contained in microorganisms, tissues or cells (eg in DNA or RNA) as well as peptide bonds between the individual acids.
- DNA/RNA absorbs electromagnetic radiation well within the wavelength range between 200 nm and 300 nm and particularly well between 250 nm and 280 nm, so that this radiation is particularly suitable for inactivating DNA/RNA.
- Pathogenic microorganisms viruses, bacteria, yeasts, molds, etc.
- the structure of the DNA or RNA can be destroyed.
- metabolically active cells can be inactivated and/or their ability to reproduce can be eliminated.

The filled aluminum bowls are then stored at room temperature for 24 h and then placed in an oven at 80° C. for 5 h.
- the resulting plastic products were removed from the oven and placed in the hood at room temperature for a further 24 hours. Only then was the antimicrobial effect of the resulting plastic products with or without a phosphor examined.
- 2.3.1.4 Production of PP moldings (plates) The compounds produced were smooth plates (injection molding tool: double plates smooth, company: AXXICON) with a size of 6 cm x 6 cm and a thickness of 2 mm. The injection molding conditions were taken from the technical data sheet of the PP. Plastic products based on PP containing 1% and 5% phosphor were compared with one without phosphor, which were previously manufactured as compounds according to 2.3.1.1. 2.3.2 Implementation of the transfer method Bacillus subtilis subsp.
- spizizenii DSM 347, ATCC 6633.
- 1 ml of a B. subtilis suspension with a final concentration of 10 7 cells/mL was evenly distributed on a sterile CASO agar plate to ensure confluent coverage of the nutrient agar.
- the bacterial suspension applied was equilibrated on the nutrient agar for 300 ⁇ 30 s at room temperature (22 ⁇ 2 °C).
- the bacterial suspensions were prepared by diluting precultures of the respective bacterial strain. Diluted in sterile deionized water.
- the precultures of the test organisms were prepared in sterilized CASO broth. The preculture of B.
- subtilis was incubated for 16 ⁇ 1 h at 30 °C with constant shaking in a shaking water bath.
- the cell titer of the precultures was determined microscopically using a haemocytometer (counting chamber according to Thoma).
- the aim of the transfer method is to simulate the antimicrobial effect of the plastic surface under realistic conditions on a dry, inanimate surface.
- the plastic products obtained as described above were used pressed onto a nutrient agar plate confluently inoculated with B. subtilis with a defined weight of 90 ⁇ 1 g for 60 ⁇ 5 s. This step transferred the bacteria semi-dry to the surface of the plastic products.
- the plastic articles were then placed in an empty Petri dish with the inoculated side up and incubated under lighting at room temperature for 0 h, 1 h, 2 h and 4 h.
- the foils were also incubated with the inoculated side in the dark at room temperature for 0 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h. All samples and references were tested in triplicate, with and without illumination during the incubation period. The antimicrobial effect is detected after the appropriate incubation time by determining the culturability using a contact test (FIG. 2). To test the culturability of B.
- subtilis the foils were pressed with the inoculated side after the incubation time of 0 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h for 60 ⁇ 5 s with a defined weight of 90 ⁇ 1 g on a sterile nutrient agar plate .
- the nutrient agar was then incubated statically for 24 ⁇ 1 h at 30 °C.
- the resulting bacterial colonies were qualitatively evaluated visually. 2.3.3 Results of the transfer method A growth-inhibiting effect can be checked with the transfer method by a decrease in the culturability of B. subtilis. The results are summarized in Table 4.
- the culturability of the adherent bacteria on the surface of the plastic products shows a significant reduction in proliferation with increasing incubation time.
- the phosphor Lu 2 LiAl 3 Si 2 O 12 :Pr causes a significant reduction in the culturability of B. subtilis compared to the blank (plastic product without phosphor) and the plastic products incubated in the dark. This reduction can already be measured after 1 h of incubation under constant lighting. The decrease in culturability increases up to the incubation time of 4 hours with constant lighting. The plastic products incubated in the dark show no reduction in culturability over the incubation period of 4 hours. The unchanged number of culturable bacteria over a period of 4 h shows that the antimicrobial effect of the phosphor is only present when it is exposed to light. The effect of up-conversion is therefore also given here. The plastic products also show no genuine contamination.
