Background and Objective: Nosocomial infection is a major challenge in health care system. In fact, it is regarded as one of the risk factors in hospitalized patients. The aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial effect of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) nursing gowns on geram – positive bacterial.
Methods: This descriptive and analytical study was done on 200 nurses gowns were surveyed in two hospitals of Sirjan city in Kerman Province cenral area of Iran. At first, the antimicrobial activity of silver nano fabrics on Staphylococcus aureus bacteria was confirmed by examining the optical density OD (0.325) medium. Sampling was gathered into the two modes, before using nano gowns and after using nano gowns by using wet sterile swabs. The samples collected were cultured and the formations of colonies were examined and biochemical tests were used to identify isolated bacterial.
Results: The most commonly isolated gram- positive bacterial from normal gowns were Staphylococcus epidermidis (43%) and the lowest pathogen was Streptococcus (1%). In these hospitals, after using nano silver gowns, the amount of microbial load on the clothes were determind zero.
Conclusion: This study showed that gram- positive bacterials of nursing gowns after contact with silver nanoparticles were eliminated.
