Surface Engineering of Thin Film Composite Polyamide Membranes with Silver Nanoparticles through Layer-by-Layer Interfacial Polymerization for Antibacterial Properties

Abstract: We developed a simple and facile approach to covalently immobilize Ag nanoparticles (NPs) onto polyamide surfaces of thin film composite membranes through layer-by-layer interfacial polymerization (LBL-IP) for biofouling mitigation. Stable and uniform bovine serum albumin (BSA) capped Ag NPs with an average diameter of around 20 nm were synthesized using BSA as a template under the assistance of sonication, and Ag NPs incorporated thin film composite (TFC) polyamide membrane was then fabricated by LBL-IP on a … Show more

“…Each test was performed in triplicate. Viable colonies of microbes on the agar plate were counted, and the percentage of cell growth reduction (CGR, %) was calculated using the equation CGR = (C 0 − C/C 0 ) × 100%, where C 0 is the number of CFU of bacteria from the control sample and C is the number of CFU of bacteria from hybrid DACHsilane fibres [1,29].…”
