Surface modification of polypropylene (PP) films was achieved using gamma-irradiation-induced grafting to provide an adequate surface capable of carrying glycopeptide antibiotics. The copolymer was obtained following a versatile two-step route; pristine PP was exposed to gamma rays and grafted with methyl methacrylate (MMA), and afterward, the film was grafted with -vinylimidazole (NVI) by simultaneous irradiation. Characterization included Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and physicochemical analysis of swelling and contact angle. The new material (PP--MMA)--NVI was loaded with vancomycin to quantify the release by UV-vis spectrophotometry at different pH. The surface of (PP--MMA)--NVI exhibited pH-responsiveness and moderate hydrophilicity, which are suitable properties for controlled drug release.
采用γ射线辐照接枝的方法对聚丙烯(PP)薄膜进行表面改性,以提供足够的能够携带糖肽抗生素的表面。该共聚物是通过灵活的两步法获得的;首先将原始 PP 暴露于γ射线下,并与甲基丙烯酸甲酯(MMA)接枝,然后通过同时辐照将薄膜接枝上 -乙烯基咪唑(NVI)。表征包括傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、热重分析(TGA)、X 射线光电子能谱(XPS)以及溶胀和接触角的物理化学分析。将新的材料(PP--MMA)--NVI 负载万古霉素,通过在不同 pH 值下的紫外-可见分光光度法定量释放。(PP--MMA)--NVI 的表面呈现出 pH 响应性和适度的亲水性,这是适合控制药物释放的特性。
