The morphologies and chemical composition of above nanocomposite were fully measured by SEM, FTIR and XRD measurements. The results demonstrated that TiO2 nanofibers and GO sheets have a uniform distribution in the CA nanofibers and these two additives also could improve hydrophilicity. TiO2/GO/[email protected] exhibited high antibacterial activity with an inhibition rate higher than 95% against B. subtilis and B. cereus bacteria. Therefore, the proposed nanofiber is promising for the large-scale production of antibacterial nanofiber/cotton hybrid yarns for biomedical and antibacterial textiles applications.}, journal={INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL MACROMOLECULES}, author={Jia, Leilei and Huang, Xinyu and Liang, Hui'e and Tao, Qiong}, year={2019}, month={Jul}, pages={1039–1043} }
