TLDR
In this article, the silver-based MOF material Ag3(3phosphonobenzoate) was evaluated as a bactericidal material and a sustainable release of Ag+, which was quantified by cathodic stripping voltammetry, was responsible for bactericidal activity against the 6 bacterial strains tested.

Metal-organic frameworks: mechanisms of antibacterial action and potential applications.

TL;DR: Metal-organic frameworks are porous, hybrid materials comprising metal ions linked by organic binding ligands that can act as a reservoir of metal ions, providing their gradual release and resulting in a sustained antibacterial action analogous to that proposed for metal/metal oxide nanoparticles but different to that of antibiotics.

A mechanistic study of the antibacterial effect of silver ions on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.

TL;DR: The existence of elements of silver and sulfur in the electron-dense granules and cytoplasm detected by X-ray microanalysis suggested the antibacterial mechanism of silver: DNA lost its replication ability and the protein became inactivated after Ag(+) treatment.
