The Department of Biology  discusses a master’s thesis on the use of nanomaterials to eliminate antibiotic-resistant bacteria

 

A master’s thesis in the Department of Bioloy discussed a comparative study between chitosan particles and silver nanoparticles against isolates of pathogenic bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics which isolated from patients with urinary tract infections.

The thesis presented by Wissam Hadi Muhammad, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Baida Abboud Hussein, aims to find alternatives to eliminate Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates that are resistant to antibiotics that are isolated from urinary tract infections.

The results of the thesis showed that the nanomaterials of silver particles and chitosan particles have a significant effect in inhibiting the growth of antibiotic-resistant Klebsiella bacteria isolates.
