Abstract
The current work aims to modify carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) with copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) to obtain new nanocomposites of CMC, PVP, and CuO NPs (CMC/PVP/CuO NPs) with distinguished properties. The interaction between the components of the nanocomposites was suggested and supported by using Gaussian 09W 07 Software and the average particle size was manually determined from TEM images using ImageJ software developed at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The preparation methods were optimized, and the obtained nanocomposites were characterized with suitable techniques to explore their characteristics and to help expect or predict the suitable fields of applications.

Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 164:499-509. [PMID: 32682967 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.07.139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 54] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2020] [Revised: 07/12/2020] [Accepted: 07/14/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
A series of chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol)/guar gum (CS/PVA/GG) blends were prepared. The synthesis was carried out using different combinations of CS and GG, while keeping PVA constant by casting solution method. The effect of formaldehyde as a crosslinking agent was also evaluated. The blends were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infra-red (FTIR) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). Additionally, the swelling ratio along with antimicrobial activity was also studied. SEM exhibited the phenomenon that surface morphology was mostly affected by blend ratios and cross-linker. The XRD shows the crystalline structure of blends. The FTIR confirmed the strong intermolecular bonding between polymers. Swelling exhibits that cross-linking affects the hydrophilicity of blends and swelling was excellent for S4 blend. The prepared blends showed promising antimicrobial activity against P. multocida, S. aureus, E. coli, and B. subtilis bacterial agents. The data concludes that GG, CS and PVA ternary blends could possibly be used for the biomedical applications.
