Chitosan hydrogel/silk fibroin/Mg(OH)2 nanobiocomposite as a novel scaffold with antimicrobial activity and improved mechanical properties

Abstract: Herein, a novel nanobiocomposite scaffold based on modifying synthesized cross-linked terephthaloyl thiourea-chitosan hydrogel (CTT-CS hydrogel) substrate using the extracted silk fibroin (SF) biopolymer and prepared Mg(OH)2 nanoparticles was designed and synthesized. The biological capacity of this nanobiocomposite scaffold was evaluated by cell viability method, red blood cells hemolytic and anti-biofilm assays. According to the obtained results from 3 and 7 days, the cell viability of CTT-CS/SF/Mg(OH)2 nano… Show more

“…This polysaccharide is highly insoluble in neutral aqueous media, but after protonation of its glucosamine amine groups, it easily changes to a soluble form [ 62 ]. Chitosan is an FDA-approved polymer with high mucoadhesive features that have been explored for biomedicine [ 63 , 64 , 65 ].…”

“…The combination of chitosan with silk significantly improved the physicochemical properties of the obtained blends and additionally allowed imitation of the natural environment of some tissues. Obtained chitosan:silk (1:2) blend had twice the strength factor (120 MPa) of chitosan alone (60 MPa) [140]. Chitosan and silk scaffolds produced by the ultrasound technique showed porous interconnected structures which support cells adhesion and proliferation [139].…”

“…5(e)). The rst mass reduction, which is in the temperature range of 50°C to 100°C, is related to the removal of trapped water, solvents and probable impurities from the Graphene oxide-lignin/silk broin/ZnO nanobiocomposite structure (about 20%) [17]. The second mass reduction occurs in the range of 150°C to 300 and during this process, about 30% of the mass was eliminated.…”

“…Furthermore, nanobiocomposites with properties such as nontoxicity, hemocompatibility, and improved mechanical properties are appropriate candidates for utilizing in biological applications and in this regard, various reports have been presented in elds of drug delivery [14], pharmaceutics [15], wound healing [16], antibacterial materials [17], cancer therapy [3,18,19], and tissue engineering [20]. A wide range of materials has been used to synthesize biological nanobiocomposites.…”
