| Abstract | Wound dressing is a very important factor in the process of wound healing as proper wound care can accelerate the recovery of the wound. In this study, zein nanofibrous mats with fiber diameters around 350-500 nm were prepared by electrospinning and silver (Ag) nanoparticles around 20 nm were concurrently synthesized in situ into the mats. The electrospun nanofibers were characterized by Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. Cell viability and activity of fibroblasts cells in zein/Ag mats were also evaluated and results demonstrated good cytocompatibility and attachment of cells on the composite nanofibers. Also, the bactericidal activity of the fabricated mats against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) was investigated via zone of inhibition test and results showed high anti-bacterial performance. |

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.
