Biomaterial research has improved the delivery and efficacy of drugs over a wide range of pharmaceutical applications. The objective of this study was to synthesize benzodioxane coupled piperazine decorated chitosan silver nanoparticle (Bcp*C@AgNPs) against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and to assess the nanoparticle as an effective candidate for antibacterial and anti-biofilm care. Antibacterial activity of the compound was examined and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was observed at (10.21 ± 0.03 ZOI) a concentration of 200 μg/mL. The Bcp*C@AgNPs interferes with surface adherence of MRSA, suggesting an anti-biofilm distinctive property that is verified for the first time by confocal laser microscopic studies. By ADMET studies the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity of the compound was examined. The interaction solidity and the stability of the compound when surrounded by water molecules were analyzed by docking and dynamic simulation analysis. The myoblast cell line (L6) was considered for toxicity study and was observed that the compound exhibited less toxic effect. This current research highlights the biocidal efficiency of Bcp*C@AgNPs with their bactericidal and anti-biofilm properties over potential interesting clinical trial targets in future.

Food packaging plays a vital role in guaranteeing the quality and safety of fresh products during the storage and distribution. Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) is identified as a promising polymer for food packaging film owing to its film-forming ability, non-toxicity, and biodegradability. Nevertheless, the practical applications of pure CMCS film usually suffer from some limits owing to its poor antibacterial effect and mechanical strength.

The development of a sustainable and eco-friendly silver-based hybrid nanocomposite for safe and efficient point-of-use (POU) water disinfection remains a challenge. Herein, a simple and facile approach was proposed for the in situ immobilization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on chitosan-g-poly (sulfobetaine methacrylate) (CS-g-PSBMA) hydrogel beads, which have been achieved via graft copolymerization of sulfobetaine methacrylate along the chitosan chains followed by a drop method. The AgNPs-decorated CS-g-PSBMA hydrogel beads were characterized and their bactericidal efficacy towards Escherichia coli was evaluated concurrently with their anti-biofouling behaviors.

Article Synopsis
- Sustainable hydrogel dressings were created using chitosan and polyvinyl pyrrolidone and enhanced with zinc or zinc-silver nanocages for wound healing.
- The dressings demonstrated excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties, promoting a moisture-balanced environment that supports rapid healing.
- Testing showed that these dressings are safe for skin cells and led to significant healing (up to 69% in 7 days) through reduced inflammation and enhanced cell growth factors.

Wound infections caused by pathogenic bacteria can cause delayed wound healing and even threaten the life of patients. Drug resistance and effectiveness with regard to traditional wound dressings have become urgent issues which need to be addressed. The antibacterial effect of hydrogels, as novel wound dressings, is through contact-active antibacterial was limited by the contact area and time.
