摘要
Carboxymethyl starch/silver oxide nanocomposites(CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs)were successfully fabricated by modifying carboxymethyl starch(CMS)with Ag_(2)O obtained from an aqueous AgNO_(3)solution as silver source.Ag_(2)O nanoparticles(NPs)formed on the surface of CMS by ion exchange.Based on SEM images,the diameters of Ag_(2)O NPs were determined to be between 50 and 100 nm.From the XRD spectra of CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs,the new diffraction peaks appeared at 33.88°and 38.08°,which were attributed to the Ag_(2)O NPs.According to the XPS analysis,Ag 3d_(5/2)and Ag 3d_(3/2)peaks in CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs were fitted into two main peaks centered at 367.6 eV and 373.6 eV,which were attributed to Ag^(+).The antibacterial efficiencies of CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs against Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus,Pseudoalteromonas tetraodonis,Micrococcus luteus,and Shewanella putrefaciens were determined to be 99.6%,99.7%,99.4%,99.5%,and 99.6%,respectively.The antibacterial efficiencies of CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs against the bacterial species were all greater than 99%.Therefore,these results indicated that CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs was highly effective as a bactericidal agent against multiple bacterial species.CMS-Ag_(2)O NCs can be further applied to antifouling coating.
