Composite based on poly(acrylic acid‐co‐itaconic acid) hydrogel with antibacterial performance

Abstract: Novel composites have been prepared via the incorporation of zinc oxide nanoparticles (nZnO) into poly(acrylic acid-co-itaconic acid) (poly(AA-co-IA)) hydrogel. The prepared composites were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), swelling studies, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The amount of nZnO incorporated into hydrogel was determined by using atomic absorbance spectrometry. In addition, th… Show more

“…The minimum bacterial concentration was done by disk diffusion method by using PMMA, NiO NPs, and polymer nanobiocomposites (0.2, 0.6, and 1%) on fresh cultures of M. luteus, S. epidermidis, Y. enterocolitica, and K. pneumoniae . After 24 h, bacterial broth cultures were streaking into agar plate to determine their minimum bactericidal inhibition and different concentration of polymer composite (0.2, 0.6, and 1%) and NPs were loaded on sterile disk and tested their MBC against gram negative bacteria , such as Y. enterocolitica and K. pneumoniae as shown in Fig. .…”

“…The NaCMC‐HPMC‐ZnO hydrogel films (5 cm × 5 cm) were immersed in PBS, pH 7.4 at 37°C for 24 h. The swollen films were weighed after removing the excess surface water and the swelling degree (Mean ± Std. Dev) was calculated as defined below: SD0.25em()%=()WsWd/Wd×100 where W s and W d are the weights of swollen and dried hydrogel films, respectively.…”

“…Besides, they absorb large amounts of water or biological fluids thereby preventing maceration while permitting the transport of nutrients, oxygen, and metabolic products. These characteristics make hydrogels an excellent candidate for various biomedical applications, especially as a component in wound healing materials . Among several polymers of cellulose derivatives, sodium carboxymethylcellulose (NaCMC) and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) have been widely investigated to fabricate hydrogels for wound healing applications .…”

“…Polymer microgels have attained much attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties along with their responsive nature to different environmental stimuli like temperature, pH and ionic strength of the medium . Microgels are widely used in sensing , drug delivery , emulsion stabilization , separation processing , environmental pollutants adsorption , nanotechnology and catalysis . The use of microgels as microreactor for the preparation of noble metal nanoparticles was first reported by Antonietti et al .…”
