Abstract
We report the synthesis and in vitro evaluation of dual-function chitosan-silver nanoparticles (CTS-AgNPs) films with potential applications as wound dressings. We attempted to formulate nanocomposite films with appropriate AgNPs concentrations to simultaneously display antibacterial activity and suitability for cell culture. Nanocomposites were obtained by CTS-mediated in situ chemical reduction of AgNO3. Circular-shape AgNPs (sizes ca. 7–50...
