| Abstract | We develop an antimicrobial active robust metal-cellulose nanohybrid by covalent assembly of metal nanoparticles on cellulose fabric using a simple impregnation of thiol-modified cellulose fabric in colloidal silver (Ag) or palladium (Pd) nanoparticle solutions. The combined results of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS) and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) reveal that the nanoparticles are highly loaded and dispersed in the thiol-modified cellulose fabric, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis reveals that the nanoparticles are immobilized in the fabric by a strong and stable covalent bond with thiol functional group. This robust covalent linkage between the nanoparticles and the fabric leads to a remarkable suppression of the release of metal nanoparticles from the fabric. In addition, the metal-cellulose nanohybrids show high antimicrobial activity in excess of 99.9 % growth inhibition of the microorganism. Thus, we anticipate that our metal-cellulose nanohybrid may not only protect cell damage caused by penetration and fixation of metal nanoparticles into the human body but also act as a sustainable biomedical textile. |

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.
