Production of Chitosan Nanoparticles using Mold Filtrate Aspergillus Nigar and Coupling it with Some Antioxidants

Abstract

Abstract The current study was conducted with the aim of producing chitosan nanoparticles using Aspergillus nigar mold filtrate and then pairing it with antioxidants for vitamin C, glutathione, coenzyme Q-10, and zinc, The properties of the resulting chitosan nanoparticles were determined using Absorption UV-Visible Light Spectroscopy techniques, X-Ray diffraction and scanning electron Microscope [SEM] The results showed the possibility of formation of chitosan nanoparticles [CH-NPs] through the use of bioproduction of Aspergillus nigar Where the resulting chitosan atoms were spherical granules, the sizes ranged between 5-124 nm. When the chitosan nanoparticles were linked with antioxidants, a color change occurred that ranged from creamy, to brown and pink, which is a preliminary indication of the ability of the nanoparticles to be associated with antioxidants in the study.
