(saffron) including stigma, stamen, leaves and colora, extracted by various solvents, were tested against different bacteria (microccucos luteus, staphylococcus epidermitis, staphylococcus aureus and e. coli) and fungi (candida albicans, aspergillus niger and cladospourium sp) by cup plate diffusion method. minimal inhibitory conce...

The antimicrobial activity of a wound dressing is a key factor for preventing and treating wound infection. The current study evaluated the physiochemical properties and antimicrobial activities of semi-IPNs (interpenetrating polymer networks) based on chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films and nanofibers as candidates for wound dressings and investigated the effects of morphologies (nanofibrou...
