제목 Antibacterial activity and cyto-compatibility of PLGA/CuO hybrid nanofiber scaffolds prepared by electrospining
초록 The PLGA/CuO hybrid nanofiber scaffolds were prepared via electrospinning technique. The presence of CuO in the PLGA scaffolds was confirmed by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The scaffolds were subjected to various antibacterial and biocompatibility tests. The results not only showed excellent adhesion, proliferation and viability (live/dead staining) for fibroblastic cells but also revealed that PLGA/CuO hybrid nanofiber scaffolds inhibited both gram positive and gram negative bacterial growth. The mechanism of the antibacterial activity was concluded to be based on the CuO nanoparticles and Cu++ ion release. It is therefore, evaluated that PLGA/CuO hybrid nanofiber scaffolds can be a useful candidate for wound dressing and an alternate implanting material after post surgical operation.
