Preparation and characterization of collagen/chitosan composites with silver nanoparticles

Abstract: In this work, thin films made from the blends of collagen and chitosan with silver nanoparticles were prepared and their properties, which are important for potential biomedical applications, were studied. Thin biopolimeric film was obtained by solvent evaporation from collagen/chitosan mixture containing silver nanoparticles. Mechanical properties of the composites were tested in dry condition using a mechanical testing machine. Microstructure of films was analyzed by Atomic Force Microscope. The surface prop… Show more

“…Materials were characterized by porosity and good mechanical properties. Silk fibroin was mixed with collagen in ratios of 50/50, 25/75, and 75/25 to prepare biopolymer sponges [33][34][35][36]. Furthermore, silk fibroin and chitosan were previously studied by our group [37][38][39][40].…”

“…Hydrogels as biomaterials and their utilization in different biomedical field as various cell and drug delivery vehicles, implants, and so on has been the subject of extensive study over the past decade. [1][2][3][4] Among these, the hydrogels that are formed by in situ polymerization technique have gained popularity as carriers and injectable scaffolds in tissue engineering because of their minimalistic invasive nature of injection and relatively simpler applications. 5,6 A number of hydrophilic polymers have been utilized as primary constituents of hydrogels, some of them being poly (methacrylic acid), 7 poly (N-isopropylacrylamide), 8 poly (acrylamide), 9 poly (ethylene oxide), 10 and poly (2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate).…”
