Fluorescence and Antimicrobial Properties of Modified Polyvinyl Alcohol Conjugates with some Carboxylic Acid

   

Gopalkrushna H. Murhekar*

ABSTRACT

 

It is found that the fluorescence intensity of the modified polyvinyl alcohol (MPVA) and complexes of MPVA (CMPVA) is higher than that of pure PVA. The increase of the intensity of the emission peak may be due to the strong interaction between the dopant and the polymer. Antibacterial activities of the test samples are expressed by measuring the zone inhibition observed around the area. The result obtained from PVA, MPVA and CMPVA, it is clear that the MPVA and CMPVA are more microbial than that the free metal ion or PVA. From this observation, it concluded that MPVA and CMPVA antimicrobial agent.
