A solvent casting technique was used for the preparation of biomimetic nanocomposites scaffolds at three various concentrations of Curcumin loaded gold nanoparticles (Cur-AuNPs-1, 1.5, and 2 ml) as filler materials with chitosan-sodium alginate composite. The physico-chemical properties of prepared Cu-Au NPs and biomimetic nanocomposites were analyzed using various characterization techniques. In vitro biocompatibility of biomimetic nanocomposites are determined using simulated body fluid for biomineralization property, HAp formation and phosphate buffer saline (PBS) for swelling property, protein adsorption. Antibacterial activity of Cur-Au NPs and their nanocomposites carried out against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus. In vitro cytotoxicity of Cur-AuNPs is identified against UC-6 and MDA-MB 231 cell lines. The use of above studies and activity of Cur-AuNPs with contain biomimetic nanocomposites can adoptable for nanotheranostics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
