Abstract

1-Ethyl-7-methyl-4-oxo-[1,8]naphthyridine-3-carboxylic acid (nalidixic acid) is one of the most important and highly-consumed quinolone antibiotic drugs. In the present study, we prepared and characterized the nalidixic acid (NA)-layered zinc hydroxide (LZH) nanohybrid composites. The two subsequent ratios of the nanocomposites showed a basal spacing of 10.56 and 11.18 Å. These prepared nanocomposites were analyzed by PXRD, FTIR, TGA/DTA, BET, EDS, and FESEM, all representing the successful intercalation of NA into LZH nanohybrid gallery spaces. Accordingly, by the PXRD analysis, the average particle size and micro-strain values of the LZH and the two ratios of the nanocomposites were calculated and compared. The biopolymer NA-chitosan and NA-LZH-chitosan nanocomposites were prepared. Furthermore, drug release studies from LZH and chitosan substrates were measured at pH = 4.8 and 7.4 and acetate-buffered and phosphate-buffered saline solutions, respectively.
