| Abstract |
Composite materials used in biomedical applications based on bacterial cellulose (BC) have attracted
considerable scientific interest due to their specific and excellent properties. This work reports the
fabrication of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) deposited on nanofibrillated BC (BC-AgNPs
nanocomposite) for antimicrobial applications. BC, AgNPs, as well as BC-AgNPs nanocomposite
formation were fully characterized using various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field
emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) analyses, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR)
spectoscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).
Furthermore, the antimicrobial effects of produced BC-AgNP composites were evaluated on two
pathogenic microorganisms, a gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and a gram-positive (Staphylococcus
aureus) by determining their minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC), and minimum bactericidal
concentrations (MBC) using an agar diffusion assay. The results show that the BC-AgNPs composite
has good antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli but less against Staphylococcus aureus. |
