Abstract
In this paper, we aim to synthesize keratin nanoparticles from chicken’s feather. Crude keratin was extracted by chemical method. We obtained results for keratin nanoparticles using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. In this study, gold nanoparticles (GNps prepared by way Laser Ablation) with keratin nanoparticles for the production of antibacterial materials. NPs samples were characterized using a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The absorption spectra were measure by UV-Visible, double beam spectrophotometer. Three types of pathogenic bacteria were used in this study (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and E. coli) in addition to one opportunistic yeast (Candida albicans). Nano-creatine particles can be used for wound dressing as well as cosmetic preparation.
