“…The researchers used the metal oxide nanoparticles as the modi er agent of chitosan such as ZnO (Dananjaya et al, 2018;Fatoni et al, 2020b;Fatoni et al, 2020a;, CuO nanoparticles (Fatoni et al, 2020), and AgO nanoparticles (Hajji et al, 2019) because the primary amine groups of chitosan can be reacted with metal oxide nanoparticles (Usman et al, 2012;Haldorai and Shim, 2013;Abdelhady, 2012). Application of chitosan modi ed metal oxide nanoparticles was studied by researchers such as antibacterial (Dananjaya et al, 2018;Fatoni et al, 2020b;Fatoni et al, 2020a;Fatoni et al, 2020;Hajji et al, 2019), dye degradation (Preethi et al, 2020), adsorbent (Muinde et al, 2020) and analytical sensor (Nainggolan et al, 2020).…”
