ABSTRACT

Nowadays, because of the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics, researchers are trying to make new antibiotics or sometimes even bring them back into the treatment cycle so that they could eliminate the bacteria's resistance. On the other hand, the use of nanofibers has become widespread in many fields for their unique properties and convenient design. The present study focuses on the production of hydrophobic nanofibers to absorb the bacteria and their toxins from the bloodstream that contains the infection. Many bacterial surfaces have hydrophobic surfactant properties due to hydrophobic surface protein. According to the principle of binding two hydrophobic molecules to each other in an aqueous medium, the nanofibers are designed to physically absorb the bacteria. The use of antibiotics in the study can remove some unattached bacteria. In addition, using nanofiber manufacturing techniques can reduce the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics. The construction of the desired membrane can be used in subsequent studies as a replacement membrane for dialysis filters.
