Özet

In this study, novel biomaterial that consisted entirely of bacterial products was developed with the approach of designing cost effective material for biomedical applications. With this aim, bacterial cellulose membranes (BCMs) which synthesized by Komagataeibacter intermedius were produced. Moreover, to impart antimicrobial properties to enhance the capacity of BCMs for biomedical usage, prodigiosin (PG) pigment of Serratia marcescens which presents wide range of antimicrobial activities was loaded to BCMs. Firstly, high yield of PG production was achieved, and then crude pigment was purified with silica gel column. The purified PG was characterized with thin layer chromatography and UV–visible spectrometry. The antimicrobial effect of the produced pigment on Gram-positive and negative bacteria and a yeast was investigated. The success of modification in PG-modified BCMs has been demonstrated by FTIR and SEM. Moreover, antimicrobial and antiadhesive ability of novel PG-BCMs were examined with disc diffusion and plate counting methods. As a result, it was established that PG-BCMs were able to inhibit the growth of all tested microorganisms. Furthermore, excellent antiadhesive effect was observed for the tested microorganisms with the inhibition rates of 82.05–96.25 %. Finally, cytotoxicity test with L929 cell line demonstrated that PG-BCM is biocompatible at a level that can be applied in in vivo studies.
