ANTIBACTERIAL COMPOSITE FILM PREPARED FROM MICROCRYSTALINE CELLULOSE-CHITOSAN FROM LIBR SOLUTION WITH GARLIC EXTRACTION Authors: Ahuja S , PATEL A, PATEL ANIL AND PANDA SR
ABSTRACT
A film was prepared from chitosan-microcrystalline cellulose where added into lithium bromide
(LiBr) solution. The microcrystalline cellulose -chitosan composite film where prepared from
drying and wash by under uniform conditions. The garlic extraction was adding into the
composite film. The antibacterial activity and mechanical properties of the composite film was
increase due the extraction of garlic which shows more effective in composite film .The
hydrogen bond between microcrystalline cellulose and chitosan in composite film was
successfully achieved and maintained outstanding mechanical properties, according to the FT-IR
results.
