Abstract:
In the present paper, in-situ preparation of silver nanoparticles have been conducted in 3D network structure of BC membrane through liquid phase chemical deoxidization method. The characterization of products was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectroscopy (IR), energy dispersion spectrometry (SEM-EDS). The absorbing water capacity and preserving water capacity of substitutes and the antibacterial capacities of antibacterial agent-loaded artificial skin were tested. The results showed the silver nanoparticles were approximately spherical particles with an average diameter of 45nm, and were noted to have excellent sterilizing efficacy the efficiency of against Escherichia coli, yeast and Candida albicans.
