Pathogenic bacterial infection, especially in the wound, may threaten human health. Developing new antibacterial materials for wound healing is still urgent. Metal nanoclusters have been explored as a novel antibacterial agent. Herein, biomolecule gelatin was chosen as a substrate and functionalized with gold/silver clusters for bacterial killing. Through a simple amidation reaction, gold/silver clusters were successfully conjugated in a gelatin substrate to obtain a Au/Ag@gelatin sponge. The presence of gold/silver clusters modified the porous structure of the gelatin. Thus, the water absorption and water retention of the Au/Ag@gelatin sponge were enhanced. More importantly, the gold/silver clusters show aggregation-enhanced emission and strong reactive oxygen generation, that endow the Au/Ag@gelatin sponge with a good antibacterial property. The good physical performance and favorable bactericidal activity of the Au/Ag@gelatin sponge suggest its potential for application as a wound dressing.
