Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the release kinetics and antibacterial activities of curcumin (CUR) loaded in zein (zein-CUR) electrospun fibers towards Escherichia coli (E. coli, 8099) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus, ATCC 6538). CUR was successfully loaded in zein fibers by electrospinning technique, and the encapsulation efficiency was close to 100% and the encapsulated CUR still retained its antioxidant capacity. The...
