Fourier Transform Infrared (ftir) Spectroscopy for Characterization of Antimicrobial Films Containing Chitosan
نویسندگان
چکیده
Biopolymer films containing chitosan as antimicrobial agent were obtained. As polymer matrix poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and bacterial cellulose (BC) were used. The films were characterized using FTIR spectroscopy. FTIR spectra of the pure components and of composites films reveal strong interactions between chitosan and PVA and chitosan and bacterial cellulose. These composite films could be used as antimicrobial food packaging materials.
