Descrizione:
In the present work, AgNPs loaded chitosan/poly(acrylamidecoitaconic acid) interpolyelectrolyte complex (IPC) films have been prepared for antimicrobial applications. The AgNPsloaded IPC films have been characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Xray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Particle size of synthesized AgNPs was found to be in the range 1030 nm. These films exhibited a remarkable antibacterial property against strong pathogen E.Coli, thus offering their candidature for antimicrobial applications.
