Abstract:According to recent studies on the benefits of natural polymer-based hydrogels in biomedical applications, gellan gum (GG)/acacia gum (AG) hydrogel was prepared in this study. In order to regulate the mechanical behavior of the hydrogel, graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was included in the hydrogel matrix. In addition, metal oxide nanoparticles ZnCuFe2O4 were added to the composite for antibacterial activity. The prepared GG–AG hydrogel/g-C3N4/ZnCuFe2O4 nanobiocomposite was characterized by using FE-SEM, FTIR,… Show more
