Boosting of Antibacterial Performance of Cellulose Based Paper Sheet via TiO2 Nanoparticles

Abstract: Here, we aimed to boost antibacterial performance of cellulose fibers for paper sheet application. Therefore, TiO2 nanoparticles have been used with controlled loading onto the surface of the fibers. A simple and facile composite preparation route based on ultrasound and mechanical assisted stirring has been developed. We tested cellulose paper enriched by TiO2 from 1.0 wt% to 8.0 wt%, respectively. Antibacterial performance has been studied against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria.

“…The number of bacteria on the PLA/copper sample over different time intervals is given in Table 2 . The number of recovered bacteria on the PLA/copper sample sheet after just 20 min was significantly lower than that on the control sheet and remained the same up to 24 h. This suggests that the antimicrobial efficiency of the composite sheet produced from PLA/copper against different types of common bacteria was excellent; these results are better than those obtained in a previously published study [ 48 ], in which the efficiency of a cellulose-based composite sheet against E. coli and S. aureus showed a 60% reduction in these bacteria after 24 h against the prepared composite.…”

“…One interesting literature [41] investigated the in‐vivo burn wound healing potential of nanocomposite of bacterial cellulose (BC) and titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) nanoparticles by testing it against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus . These 2 pathogens had also been used in another report [42] which aimed to boost antibacterial performance of cellulose fibers for paper sheet application by incorporating TiO 2 NPs to it. The nanocomposite of microfibrous cellulose and TiO 2 NPs has also been explored as antibacterial bio‐adsorbents for the removal of phosphate from aqueous medium [43] …”
