Abstract :
In this research, fibrous composites with antibacterial activities including polyacrylonitrile (PAN), chitosan nanoparticles (CSNPs), silver metal-organic framework, and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) were prepared by electrospinning method. The prepared fibers were studied using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and elemental mapping using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The obtained results of the antibacterial studies against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) showed that the addition of silver metal-organic framework as well as the antibacterial compounds such as CSNPs and NAC led to the improvement of the antibacterial properties of the fibers. Therefore, these compounds have the potential to be used in medical fields such as wound healing
