Preparation and antimicrobial activity of ZnO-NPs coated cotton/starch and their functionalized ZnO-Ag/cotton and Zn(II) curcumin/cotton materials

Abstract: ZnO-NPs coated cotton or starched cotton fibers were successfully prepared via ultrasound irradiation. Different concentrations of soluble corn starch (1-3 starch wt.%) were used to stabilize ZnO-NPs onto the surface of cotton fabrics as entrapped species. the use of none-toxic biocompatible starch has improved the adhesion properties of the cotton fibers towards ZnO-NPs. This also enhanced the durability of Zno-nps onto the cotton fabrics and decreased their leaching from the surface of cotton fabrics. When 3… Show more

“…Similarly, the use of nanomaterials can build antimicrobial properties in textiles used in PPE. This strategy has been used to prevent the growth of microorganisms in clothes [90,93]. The surfaces modified by nanoscale biocides, such as quaternary ammonium or quaternary phosphonium salts, polymers or peptides, can control microorganisms through oxidation of the microbial membrane [92,94].…”

“…Another strategy also used to increase the personal protection of facemasks is the modification of the textile surface. The use of nanoparticles, such as copper and silver, provide antimicrobial activity and can be included in different types of fibres or materials, such as cotton, polyalkene, polyester, polyamide, polyaramide and cellulose-based polymers [ 93 , 96 , 97 ]. Park et al showed that silver nanoparticles (in the form of a silica hybrid composite) can be used in filters or membranes.…”

“…1 wt% curcumin and 1 w% ZnO incorporated film demonstrated optimal antibacterial and antioxidant properties without compromising the optical transparency and mechanical property of the film [95]. Issa M. et al [96] studied the effect of cellulose binder on the ZnO-cast cotton fabric on the antimicrobial and wash fastness property of the composite fabric. They observed that the use of cellulose binder enhanced the antibacterial property of the fabric against E. coli and S. aureus.…”

“…ZnO-NPs also caused disruption of the cell membrane of the bacterial cell which leads to cell death ( Qiu et al, 2020 ). Zn ions which were released from the Zn NPs were also reported to interact with the cell membrane and cellular contents of the bacterial cell ( El-Nahhal et al, 2017 ).…”
