Abstract
This paper presents a method for fabricating AgNP – Curcumin – WS chitosan composite and evaluating its capability for burn treatment. The size of AgNP synthesized from AgNO3 using sodium nitatre as a reducing agent was in the range of 16 to 18 nm. The formation of the synthesized AgNP was characterized by means of the UV – Vis method and X-ray diffraction (XRD); the size of the synthesized AgNP was specified via the TEM method. Antibacterial tests against Gram-negative and Gram-positve bacteria showed that the synthesized sample demonstrated significant effects against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Clinical tests on rabbits resulted in the fact that the burns was dry and disinfected, especially with no scars left after healing, which proved the capability for burn treatment of this material.
