Sutures are biomaterials regarded
as a major cause of Surgical Site Infections (SSIs). Present work aims at a
novel strategy to reduce nosocomial infections by coating sutures with
antimicrobial drugs. Gold Nanoparticles (GNPs) coated with antimicrobial drugs are well known for their antimicrobial activity. Hence, synthesis of gold
nanoparticles by chemical reduction method followed by preparation of curcumin
pegylated GNPs (CPGNPs) were carried out.
