Nanocomposite has gain great attention in many applications due to its better properties in nanoscale. Chitosan-Zeolite-ZnO nanocomposite were prepared via sol-gel method and were analysed by molecular docking study to predict its antiviral activity against SARS CoV-2. The SARS CoV-2 glycoprotein as receptor from RCSB PDB and complex ligand of Chitosan-Zeolite and ZnO were chosen as interaction model between ligand and receptor. According to free binding energy, it was found that chitosan has better potency in nanocomposite against SARS Cov-2.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
