The increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacteria highlights the need for the development of new antimicrobial agents. Curcumin, a natural compound derived from turmeric, has been shown to possess broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. However, its poor solubility and low bioavailability limit its clinical applications. Polymer-based delivery systems have been developed to enhance the solubility and efficacy of curcumin. In this study, we synthesized a curcumin-based biocompatible polymer and a silver nanoparticle (AgNP) incorporated nanocomposite for antimicrobial applications. The physicochemical properties of the polymer and nanocomposite were characterized using various analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
