{"title":"Fabrication of CS-TiO <sub>2</sub>-Ag Nanocomposites by Laser Ablation for Antimicrobial Applications and Water Purification","authors":"Tebark Abd Zaid Hassoun, Amer Al-Nafiey, Jinan A. Abd","doi":"10.26599/nbe.2023.9290033","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.26599/nbe.2023.9290033","url":null,"abstract":"In this study, we fabricated a series of nanocomposites using a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser that was operated with specific parameters, as follows: wavelength, 1064 nm; energy output, 500 mJ; pulse number, 500; and frequency, 1 Hz. Four distinct types of nanocomposites were produced: chitosan (CS); chitosan-titanium oxide (CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>); chitosan-silver (CS-Ag); and a composite of chitosan, titanium oxide, and silver (CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag). A transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis was employed to characterize these nanocomposites, revealing particle sizes of 13, 15, 34, and 32 nm for CS, CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>, CS-Ag, and CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag, respectively. We further evaluated the antimicrobial efficacy of these nanocomposites against two prevalent bacterial strains, i.e., <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Klebsiella</i>. Our observations indicated varying degrees of bactericidal effectiveness, as represented by the diameters of the killing zones. More specifically, for <i>E. coli</i>, the inhibition diameters were 20 mm (CS), 36 mm (CS-Ag), 38 mm (CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>), and 40 mm (CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag). Similar results were observed for <i>Klebsiella</i>, with inhibition diameters of 28 mm (CS), 35 mm (CS-Ag), 38 mm (CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>), and 43 mm (CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag). Moreover, the CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag nanocomposite was further studied regarding its potential for use in environmental applications, especially water purification. An experiment combining 30 mL of the CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag nanocomposite with 30 mL of contaminated water resulted in successful purification, as corroborated by a subsequent analysis. In conclusion, this study offered important insights into the fabrication of chitosan-based nanocomposites and their respective antimicrobial performances against <i>E. coli</i> and <i>Klebsiella</i>. Furthermore, it illustrated the promising potential of the CS-TiO<sub>2</sub>-Ag nanocomposite for use in water purification applications, thus demonstrating its potential for broader environmental utility.","PeriodicalId":18971,"journal":{"name":"Nano Biomedicine and Engineering","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135053551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
