Article Synopsis
- The research focused on creating controlled drug delivery systems using chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs) to deliver antibiotic drugs like tetracycline, gentamycin, and ciprofloxacin effectively.
- CSNPs were produced through ionic gelation with tripolyphosphate, resulting in antibiotic-loaded nanocomposites that demonstrated strong antibacterial properties with low toxicity.
- Treated fabrics, including 100% cotton and a cotton/polyester blend, displayed effective inhibition of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as confirmed by FTIR and SEM analyses showing the integration of nanoparticles with the fabrics.
