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.
Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles and their application to cotton fabrics.
Int J Biol Macromol
January 2015
Herein we present a green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) under the reducing action of sugar and the stabilizing action of polyethylene glycol (PEG). Factors affecting the synthesis notably molecular weight of PEG and concentrations of both sugar and silver nitrate were examined for the sake of optimization. Thus obtained AgNPs were characterized, by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectra for estimation of AgNPs formation and, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for determination of size and shape.

Thus experiments were designed to incorporation of efficient insecticide (Permethrin, bioallethrin) in the macro-molecular structure of modified cotton fabrics. Chemical modification of cotton was realized by grafting with glycidyl methacrylate alone or in combination with β-cyclodextrin by irradiation using fasting electron beam.
