Abstract
Summary: A feasible method for the preparation of antimicrobial ultrafine fibers with silver nanoparticles was developed by direct electrospinning of a cellulose acetate (CA) solution with small amounts of silver nitrate followed by photoreduction. Silver nanoparticles in ultrafine CA fibers were stabilized by interactions with carbonyl oxygen atoms in CA. Ultrafine CA fibers with silver nanoparticles showed very strong antimicrobial activity.

## Abstract A simple synthetic method has been developed for the fabrication of antimicrobial polyrhodanine nanotubes with silver nanoparticles. Rhodanine monomer first forms oneβdimensional complexes with silver ions due to coordinative interactions and consecutively reduces the silver ions during
