Silver-loaded Antibacterial Alginate Nanofibres: Preparation and Characterization

Author(s):

Forhad Hossain M and Hugh Gong R

Sodium alginate is a very popular thickening agent used in food, pharmaceutical and textile industry. It is also used in different biomedical applications and wound dressings due to its biocompatible properties. In this study, however, this biopolymer was electro spun from aqueous solution by combining a small portion of polyethylene oxide (PEO) as carrying polymer. In the spinning solution, 70:30 Na-alginate/PEO of total 4.0 wt. % was used to obtain bead-free nanofibres from electrospinning. To provide insolubility and antibacterial properties, these fibres wer... view more»
