Electrospun nanofiber patch based on gum tragacanth/polyvinyl alcohol/molybdenum disulfide composite for tetracycline delivery and their inhibitory effect on Gram+ and Gram– bacteria

In this study, polymeric composite nanofiber consisting of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/gum tragacanth (GT)/molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) were successfully developed via electrospinning process for tetracycline (TCH) delivery. Experimental analysis including UV–vis and XRD indicated that the MoS2 nanosheets were exfoliated. Based on the SEM analysis the prepared nanofiber has a smooth surface with a size diameter below 100 nm. The existence of MoS2...
