Abstract: The biocompatible and biodegradable polymer nanofiber with high potential
for antibacterial
coating are used for: multifunctional
membranes, tissue
engineering, wound dressings, drug delivery, artificial organs, vascular grafts
and etc. Electrospinning nanofiber made of scaffolding due to characteristics
such as high surface to volume ratio, high porosity and very fine pores are
used for a wide range of applications. In this study, polymer composite
nanofiber Silica/chitosan/poly (ethylene oxide) /cefepime antibiotic synthesis
and antibacterial properties will be discussed. The optimum conditions for
preparation of electrospun nanofiber were: voltage; 21 kV, feed rate; 0.5 mL/
h, nozzlecollector
distance; 10 cm, and chitosan/poly(ethylene oxide) weight
ratio 90:10 and the volume ratio of chitosan/silica is 70:30. The antibacterial
activity of composite scaffolds were tested by agar plate method by two
type bacteria including Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. With the
addition of the silica to chitosan, the hybrid was more biodegradable and
improves the mechanical properties of biopolymer.
