Quality Information

Antimicrobial and Disinfecting Metals: What Are They?

Silver and copper, which have captivated humankind since ancient times with their beautiful luster and mysterious power, are not merely ornaments or symbols of wealth. They have also held a special significance in their “germ-killing power,” suppressing unseen microorganisms. We will delve into how these two metals, backed by an ancient history, have had their mechanisms elucidated by modern science and are being applied in medicine, daily life, and even future technology, incorporating the latest research trends and specific application examples.

The Antimicrobial History of the Two Metals That Supported Civilization

Rediscovering Ancient Wisdom with Modern Science

The representative antimicrobial and disinfecting metals are silver, copper/brass.

Their respective features are as follows:

Comparison of Antimicrobial Mechanisms: Silver vs. Copper and Brass

The antimicrobial mechanism of brass involves the role of copper ions and the effect of its alloy composition.

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, typically consisting of around 60% to 90% copper. The sterilizing effect is achieved when a trace amount of copper ions leach out from the surface of the brass. The presence of moisture (such as humidity in the air or sweat from hands) causes the copper to ionize and dissolve from the surface. This ionized copper, when it comes into contact with bacteria and viruses, triggers the antimicrobial action.

The copper ions leached from brass affect bacteria in the following ways :

・Act on DNA and RNA to prevent bacterial proliferation

・Destroy the bacterial cell membrane

・Inhibit the function of essential enzymes

The antimicrobial efficacy of brass is primarily related to copper, and the higher the copper content, the greater the tendency for stronger antimicrobial power. While zinc is known to have a sterilizing effect against certain bacteria at high concentrations, the main agent in brass remains the copper ion. However, the presence of zinc may influence how copper ions are released, suggesting that the alloy’s combined mechanism requires further study.

Brass is susceptible to oxidation and tarnishing, but it has been shown to reduce bacteria when properly maintained (polished and cleaned). The patina (verdigris) that forms on the surface of brass (copper) does not possess strong antimicrobial properties itself, but it does not completely stop the dissolution of copper ions. As long as copper ions continue to be released from the brass, the antimicrobial efficacy is maintained.

Comparison of Properties: Silver, Copper, and Brass

Both copper and silver are metals with excellent antimicrobial properties, but distinct differences exist in their characteristics.

Comparison of Antimicrobial Efficacy and Safety: Silver vs. Copper

The problem of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has recently grown in scale, and in some areas, it cannot be solved by antibiotics alone. For this reason, metals known since antiquity, such as silver, copper, and brass, are receiving renewed attention. Each of these metals can attack bacteria in its own unique way, with their efficacy particularly anticipated on touch surfaces.

Furthermore, the effectiveness of copper against potent bacteria like MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), VRE (Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus), as well as viruses such as influenza virus and norovirus, and the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus that gained attention during the recent pandemic, has been confirmed in various studies.

Research is also progressing not only on their efficacy but also on their safety for both humans and the environment.

I. Silver ($Ag$): Multifaceted Antimicrobial Action

The growing problem of antibiotic-resistant bacteria highlights areas where antibiotics alone cannot provide a complete solution. For this reason, metals known since antiquity, such as silver, copper, and brass, are receiving renewed attention. Each of these metals can attack bacteria in its own unique way, with their efficacy particularly anticipated on touch surfaces.

Silver, particularly in its nanoparticle form, is recognized for its potential effectiveness even against resistant strains. Silver ions attack bacteria through several mechanisms:

• Damaging the bacterial cell membrane.
• Interfering with the function of enzymes inside the cell.

This diversified mechanism makes it difficult for bacteria to develop resistance to silver. However, more detailed research is needed concerning the long-term risk of resistant strain emergence with prolonged use.

The safety of silver varies depending on its form (ion or nanoparticle), concentration, and how it contacts the body. Under certain conditions, silver may exhibit toxicity to cells or potentially harm aquatic life. Therefore, the control of concentration and particle size is crucial for the safe use of silver-based products. Currently, international efforts are underway to evaluate the safety of silver-based products, alongside research into its behavior within the body and its long-term effects.

II. Copper ($Cu$) and Brass: Rapid Contact Killing

Copper and brass also possess potent antimicrobial properties. When bacteria land on a copper surface, they are often killed within a short period—a phenomenon known as “contact killing.” This occurs as copper ions are absorbed by the bacteria.

The copper ions then inflict damage through several mechanisms :

• Damaging the bacterial cell membrane.
• Inhibiting the function of essential proteins and enzymes.
• Damaging DNA.

Recent research has also revealed that copper ions can generate Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) inside the bacteria, which further contributes to cellular damage.

Copper and brass have been confirmed to be effective against resistant strains like MRSA and VRE, as well as viruses such as the influenza virus, norovirus, and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). The use of copper alloys on high-touch hospital surfaces like door knobs and handrails is expected to reduce the risk of infection. Indeed, such applications are becoming more common. Research is ongoing in this field, leading to the development of antimicrobial fibers and coatings utilizing copper, with potential uses also expanding into water and food hygiene management.

Regarding copper’s safety, it is an essential trace element for humans, and the risk associated with normal contact is considered low. However, excessive copper in the environment can adversely affect aquatic life. Consequently, research focused on mitigating its environmental impact is advancing.

Conclusion

Silver, copper, and brass each offer unique ways to combat bacteria. Silver features multifaceted mechanisms of action, while copper and brass are known for their rapid, sustained efficacy on contact surfaces. However, to safely utilize these metals, careful research and consideration of their application methods remain essential. Continued research in this field is highly anticipated.

Advancing Antimicrobial Silver through Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology has significantly boosted the effectiveness and scope of silver’s antimicrobial applications by increasing the surface area for ion release.

In the Healthcare Sector, silver’s utility is wide-ranging. For example, wound care products (Case 1), such as dressings and ointments containing silver nanoparticles ($Ag$NPs), are widely used to prevent infections in burns and bedsores, and to promote healing. Because $Ag$ ions act on a broad spectrum of microorganisms, they are particularly valuable when antibiotics are less effective. Furthermore, medical devices like catheters and artificial joints (Case 2) coated with $Ag$NPs help suppress the formation of biofilms, thereby reducing the risk of Hospital-Acquired Infections (HAIs). $Ag$NPs are also being incorporated into dental cement and filling materials (Case 3) to inhibit bacterial growth in the oral cavity.

For Environmental Purification, $Ag$NPs are utilized in water treatment filters (Case 4) to remove bacteria from drinking and industrial water. Similarly, antimicrobial textiles (Case 5) blended with $Ag$NPs are used in air purifier filters and clothing, providing crucial antimicrobial and deodorizing effects, especially in high-hygiene areas like sportswear and medical uniforms.

In Daily Life, $Ag$NPs are added to cosmetics (Case 6) for product preservation and to control bacterial proliferation on the skin. Food packaging materials (Case 7) coated with $Ag$NPs are also expected to maintain food freshness and inhibit bacterial spoilage, potentially leading to a reduction in food waste.

Copper’s Innovation in Contact Infection Control

Copper and its alloys (including brass) are fundamentally changing how we approach contact-based infection prevention, thanks to their potent and rapid “contact killing” property.

In the Healthcare Sector, numerous reports highlight copper’s effectiveness. For instance, in US hospitals (Case 8), replacing ICU bed rails and IV poles with copper alloys (which may include brass) significantly reduced the risk of Hospital-Acquired Infections (HAIs). Similarly, UK hospitals (Case 9) reported reduced bacterial counts and less frequent cleaning after adopting copper alloy door knobs and handrails. (Brass door knobs, in particular, have a long history of use, valued for both their design and antimicrobial qualities.)

In Daily Life, the applications are diverse. Japanese manufacturers (Case 10) sell copper cutting boards and bowls to suppress bacterial growth. Historically, copper pots are favored for jam making not only for the enhanced color but also because copper ions react with pectin to aid setting and inhibit microbial spoilage. Abroad, experimental initiatives (Case 11) have introduced copper alloys to public transit handrails and straps to verify their antimicrobial efficacy. (Brass is also a common material for handrails and grab bars in public spaces, valued for both hygiene and aesthetics.) Furthermore, sports apparel companies (Case 12) have developed socks and sportswear woven with copper fibers to suppress bacteria from sweat, providing a strong deodorizing effect. Finally, brass fixtures such as faucets and architectural hardware (Case 12-2) are widely used in both residential and public facilities, offering hygienic benefits on frequently touched surfaces alongside aesthetic appeal.

Expanding Potential of Antimicrobial Metals

The role of antimicrobial metals is growing rapidly across critical sectors, driven by the need to combat persistent pathogens and antibiotic resistance.

Healthcare Applications

The implementation of copper alloy equipment (including brass fixtures, as seen in Cases 8 and 9) is actively reducing the risk of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). The recent pandemic has further underscored the critical importance of these self-sanitizing surfaces.

Simultaneously, medical devices utilizing silver nanoparticles (Case 2) are proving effective in preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) and catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI). Furthermore, silver-containing materials in dental care (Case 3) remain in general use.

Beyond surfaces, research into air purification systems is advancing, focusing on technologies that use copper and silver to break down and remove airborne pathogens, indicating a shift towards holistic environmental hygiene.

Daily Life Applications

In the kitchen, copper cooking utensils (Case 10) are being re-evaluated for their role in enhancing food safety.

For consumer products, cosmetics and food packaging incorporating silver nanoparticles (Cases 6 and 7) are helping to maintain product safety and freshness, respectively.

Antimicrobial metal fibers are seeing broad deployment in hygienic goods (Case 5), ranging from sports gear to medical applications.

In public transportation, initiatives are underway to improve hygiene in shared spaces by introducing copper alloy handrails and grab bars (Case 11), often including brass options, which are touched by many people.

Finally, water treatment filters using silver nanoparticles (Case 4) are expected to make a vital contribution to providing safe drinking water, particularly in developing countries. The use of antimicrobial properties is also becoming standard in everyday items like faucets and door knobs (Case 12-2) that we touch regularly.

The Promising Future of Antimicrobial Metals

Antimicrobial metals are poised to play an indispensable role in safeguarding our health and safety, merging ancient wisdom with modern technology.

Self-sanitizing smart materials (where the use of copper and brass is highly anticipated in areas like airport terminals, station touch panels, ATMs, and public kiosks) will reduce cleaning efforts and ensure surfaces are continuously kept clean.

Copper-based environmental management systems (such as those for wastewater treatment plants and livestock waste management) are expected to take on a critical role in controlling pathogens on a larger scale.

Apparel utilizing antimicrobial metal fibers (including infection-preventive clothing, uniforms for healthcare workers, and sportswear) will help reduce infection risks simply by being worn.

Furthermore, diagnostic devices utilizing silver nanoparticles are being developed to enable more sensitive and rapid detection of pathogens.

Attempts are also being made to integrate the antimicrobial properties of brass into architectural design to create visually appealing and hygienic spaces in hospitals, schools, and public facilities.

Beyond the raw metals, the development of new antimicrobial materials that mimic the mechanisms of copper, silver, and brass is currently underway.

Copper, silver, and brass are each leveraging their unique properties to fulfill crucial antimicrobial roles in modern society. Copper, being relatively low-cost and highly safe, is essential for contact infection control in medical settings. Silver provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial power, useful for preventing infections in medical devices and for water purification. Additionally, brass combines aesthetics with practicality, contributing to the maintenance of hygienic environments in everyday products and public spaces.

It is anticipated that future technological advancements will further unlock the full antimicrobial potential of these metals, making them essential components for protecting our health and safety. Understanding and appropriately utilizing the distinct characteristics of each metal is expected to lead to the realization of a safer and more secure society, as ancient wisdom fuses with modern technology.

Beyond Big Data Models: Crafting AI for Genuine Human Cognition and Emotional Interaction

Our artificial intelligence is conceived with the creation of artificial consciousness in mind. We simulate human thought processes by gathering sensory data, followed by a series of processing steps: disassembly, analysis, reversal, similarity, time, prediction, causality, and correlation.

In contrast, many AI models on the market rely on algorithmic interpretation of extensive datasets to make predictions and inferences. However, this approach lacks the authenticity of replicating true human thought. Human thinking transcends the mere accumulation of knowledge; it involves learning through the process of thinking, gradually mastering methods and techniques.

In human communication, emotions and sentiments cannot be ignored, making continuous, natural conversation a challenge for big data AI. While big data AI excels in knowledge exchange and Q&A scenarios, emulating human emotional communication remains limited. Nevertheless, our ambition is to achieve full simulation of human thought, realizing natural interactions, continuous learning, and perpetual growth.

The objective of SYHAI is to provide a more genuine, humane artificial intelligence experience. We believe that through simulating human thought processes, new possibilities can be unlocked for future technologies. By pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence, we are striving to create a more natural and human-like AI interaction experience.
