    Covalently bonded nanosilver-hydroxyethyl cellulose/polyacrylic acid/sorbitol hybrid matrix: thermal, morphological and antibacterial properties
    (SPRINGER, 2022) BİRTANE, HATİCE; Cigil, Asli Beyler; Sen, Ferhat; Birtane, Hatice; Kahraman, Memet Vezir
    In this study, an antibacterial, biodegradable, biocompatible, and environmentally friendly coating was prepared with an easy technique. Accordingly, Ag nanoparticles were synthesized to provide antibacterial properties to the coating, and its surface was modified with (3-Glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) in order not to clump in the coating, to ensure homogeneous distribution on the surface, and to covalently bond to the coating. While preparing the coating formulation, polyacrylic acid (PAA), which are natural polymers, and hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), a derivative of cellulose, were preferred to reduce the consumption of petroleum derivatives. Then, sorbitol was used as a plasticizer. Synthesized Ag nanoparticles were included in the coating formulation containing PAA/HEC and sorbitol and thermally crosslinked at a high temperature. The size of Ag nanoparticles was analyzed by DLS while chemical composition after modification was analyzed by FTIR. Then, the chemical structure, thermal properties, surface properties, and antibacterial properties of the environmentally-friendly film were examined. It was observed that Ag nanoparticles, the surface of which were modified with GPTMS containing silicon groups, increased the thermal stability of the film, and the presence of Si and Ag on the surface was detected in SEM-EDAX measurements, and this showed that the aimed coating was obtained. It was observed that silver nanoparticles, of which their surface was modified, incorporated into the coating obtained from PAA and HEC, which are known to have no antibacterial properties, showed antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus. The zone of inhibition was measured as 11 mm for both E. coli and S. aureus.

    Transparent and flexible antibacterial photocrosslinked thin films against the S. aureus and E. coli pathogen bacteria
    (ELSEVIER, 2021) BİRTANE, HATİCE; Beyler-Cigil, Asli; Birtane, Hatice; Sen, Ferhat; Kahraman, Memet Vezir
    The study aims to obtain simple, transparent, and flexible coatings that are produced using an environmentally-friendly method, have either positive or negative charge density on their surfaces, and have antibacterial properties. For this purpose, poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA), trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA), and trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate) (TMPTMP) were crosslinked using the thiol-ene click reaction in the presence of UV light. Ammonium salt is known to have antibacterial properties due to its positively charged surface and was added to the coating formulation to positively charge the surface of the glycidyl-trimethylammonium chloride (GTMAC) coating and negatively charge the sodium 3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonate (3-MPS) surface. The thiol-ene click reaction was used in the coatings that were prepared by using the base formulation and adding 3-MPS while the thiol-ene and thiol-epoxy click reactions were used together for the addition of GTMAC to the formulation. The structural characterization of the coatings was made using FTIR, the thermal behaviors of the coatings were determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and the morphologies and chemical compositions of the coatings were examined using SEM and SEM-EDAX images. The antibacterial activities of the coatings were tested using the inhibition zone method against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria that have different cell wall properties and can serve as models for similar bacteria.
