“…The antimicrobial difference could be due to thick bilayer lipid structure of the Gram-negative bacteria, which might limit the binding and the permeability of silver nanoparticles molecules. 46 Consistent with our study, Zhang et al 47 reported that the incorporation of Ag nanoparticles into PVA nanobers could improve the antimicrobial activity of nanobers against both Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) microorganisms. They also found that the membranes show superior bacterial inhibition against Gram-positive with respect to Gram-negative bacteria.…”

Feathers, which contain >90% keratin, are valuable natural protein resources. The aim of this study is to prepare antimicrobial feather keratin (FK)-based nanofibers by incorporating silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). A series of AgNPs-embedded feather keratin/poly(vinyl alcohol)/poly(ethylene oxide) (FK/PVA/PEO) composite nanofibers with varying amounts of AgNPs content were fabricated by electrospinning. Their morphology, crystallinity, thermal stability, tensile property, and antibacterial activity were systematically investigated. The average diameters of composite nanofibers gradually decreased with increases in the amount of AgNPs. The crystallinity, thermal stability, and antibacterial activity of FK/PVA/PEO nanofibers were enhanced by embedding AgNPs. When embedded with 1.2% AgNPs, both the tensile strength and elongation-at-break reached the highest level. This work has the potential to expand the application of FK-based nanofibers in the biomaterial field.

“…Among several polymers, PVA is reported to be an eco-friendly, biocompatible, nontoxic, lubricant, biodegradable and safe, water-soluble, and better film-forming agent [10][11][12]. Furthermore, due to its good mechanical strength, PVA also used as a noble matrix for the formation of the composite [13].…”

The poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) assisted highly mesoporous Zn-Fe-Mn oxides nanomaterials were synthesized using the sol-gel followed by the self-propagation techniques. The UV-vis spectroscopic technique was used to study the optical properties of the materials. The presence of metal-oxygen bond and deposited OH − /H 2 O species were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopic technique. The porous morphology and elemental analysis were confirmed by the SEM/EDX and further morphological and crystal structure studies were conducted using TEM/HRTEM techniques. The semi-crystallinity and composition analyses were verified from XRD patterns. Using the BET N 2 adsorption-desorption analytical techniques; the porosity, specific surface area, and pore diameter enhancements were confirmed. The optima of PVA and precursors percentage were selected with the help of XRD, UV-Vis, and SEM techniques. The potential of the materials towards antibacterial activities was evaluated against both Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The 50(0.7) PVA assisted ternary metal oxide nanocomposite (PVA-TMONC) with 125 μg ml −1 concentration showed better inhibition zone for both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, with a value of 28 and 29 mm in diameter, respectively.
