ABSTRACT
Objective To prepare chitosan (CS)-compound Yizhihao-nanoparticles (NP) and to investigate its antibacterial activity. Methods CS NPs were formed by the incorporation of CS and Na3PO4. CS-compound Yizhihao NPs were prepared by ion-cross-linking. The particle sizes and surface charges of CS NPs were determined by Malvern Zetasizer 1000-HAS and atomic force microscope (AFM), respectively. The antibacterial acitivity of CS-compound Yizhihao-NPs was studied in vitro and compared with that of compound Yizhihao powder. Results Malvern Zetasizer 1000-HAS and AFM demonstrated that the diameter of CS-compound Yizhihao NPs was (137.00±14.28)nm and CS NPs had (16.90±1.32)mV positive surface charges. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of CS-compound Yizhihao NPs on Staphylococcus aureus,Pneumococcus,β-hemolytic streptococcus, and Escherichia coli were 132,132,116,and 12,respectively. The minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBC) of CS-compound Yizhihao-NPs on Staphylococcus aureus,Pneumococcus,β-hemolytic streptococcus, and Escherichia coli were 116,116,18, and 12,respectively. The antibacterial efficacy of CS-compound Yizhihao-NPs to Staphylococcus aureus,Pneumococcus,and β-hemolytic streptococcus had been improved significantly (P<0.05). Conclusion CS-compound Yizhihao-nanoparticles have obvious antibacterial activity to the Staphylococcus aureus,Pneumococcus,and β-hemolytic streptococcus,which lays the experimental foundation for new preparation of traditional Chinese medicine in future research.
