Résumé
Modification surface of chitosan nanoparticles using ZnO nanoparticles is important interest in drug delivery because of the beneficial properties. In this study, we proposed a chitosan/ZnO nanocomposite for the targeted delivery of antibacterial peptide (LL37). Synthesized LL37-loaded chitosan/ZnO nanocomposite (CS/ZnO/LL37-NCs) was based on the ionotropic gelation method. The antibacterial activity of the synthesized platform versus Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was determined by the microdilution method in 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer. The biofilm formation inhibitory was also evaluated using microtiter plate method. In addition, the ability of CS/ZnO/LL37-NCs on the icaA gene expression level was assessed by the Real-Time PCR. The loading and release investigations confirmed the suitability of CS/ZnO-NCs for LL37 encapsulation. Results showed 6 log
