| Abstract | Electrospinning method was used to prepare nylon 66 nanofibre membranes in solution mixed with chloroform/formic acid. These nanofibres were covered with (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (TPS) that has a sulphur group, making it a suitable host for Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs). Spraying of the as-prepared nylon 66/TPS surface first with silver nitrate solution and then scattering with a mixture of N2H4/NaBH4 used as reducing agents during the second process provides nanofibres with nylon 66/TPS/Ag NPs structure. Characterisation of the formed nanofibres was studied by Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy techniques. The non-woven polyurethane coated with activated carbon particles and polyethylene mesh was utilised as the substrate and protective layers of as-prepared nanofibres, respectively. Finally, the antibacterial activity of nanofibre membranes against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria was investigated by using the disk diffusion method and it was shown that the newly synthesised nanofibres presented very good antibacterial activity against the tested bacteria. The results of this study can be used for industrial applications such as antibacterial wound dressings or/and water disinfection filters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
