Synthesis and characterization of polyacrylamide based hydrogel containing magnesium oxide nanoparticles for antibacterial applications

A new hydrogel was synthesized based on polyacrylamide and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) was used as crosslinker and ammonium persulfate (APS) and N,N,N',N'-tetra-methylethylenediamine (TEMED) were utilized as initiators. Moreover, The MgO nanopartic...
