Development of Biodegradable Polymeric Films Added with CuO-NPS and Evaluation of Their Antifungal Activity

This research was aimed to obtain biodegradable polymeric films with antifungal action against Aspergillus niger, through the addition of copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs) in the commercial polymer (Ecoflex®) and to evaluate its mechanical, morphological, biodegradation, and copper release proper...
