Biosynthesized ZnO NPs loaded-electrospun PVA/sodium alginate/glycine nanofibers: synthesis, spinning optimization and antimicrobial activity evaluation by El-Refaie Kenawy, Elbadawy A. Kamoun, Amany Shehata, Shahira H. El-Moslamy, Adel A.-H. Abdel-Rahman

“…The formula of NF of (SA/PVA/ZnO (0.75%) with different ratios of glycine was used for testing as topical wound dressing as promised biomaterials. Results revealed that NF formula coded AS3.3; composed of (10%PVA/1.5%SA/10%CA/0.75%ZnO/0.5% glycine), in contrast to all the other formulations examined; showed marked reduced percentages of biofilm development of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in relation to fungal cells. …”
