GREEN-ENGINEERED MULTISCALE STARCH/PVA NANOFIBROUS SCAFFOLDS EMBEDDED WITH CUO NANOPARTICLES FROM SARGASSUM ILICIFOLIUM FOR POTENT ANTIMICROBIAL PERFORMANCE
This study presents the development of a sustainable antimicrobial nanofibrous system by incorporating biosynthesized CuO NPs (copper oxide nanoparticles) into electrospun polymeric matrices. Aqueous extracts of the brown marine alga Sargassum ilicifolium were utilized for ultrasonic-assisted extraction, enabling an en...
