Tuning antibacterial efficacy against Pseudomonas aeruginosa by using green AgNPs in chitosan thin films as a plastic alternative
This study explores the use of Eucalyptus globulus leaf extracts for synthesizing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional colloidal AgNPs. The green AgNPs showed bactericidal effects at 20 μM, improved antibacterial properties of chitosan when incorporated into thin films, and could be used in food packaging to mitigate microbial contamination.
