Abstrakt: This paper presents the synthesis of two new chitosan Schiff base (CSB) polymers, namely, 2PCT and 4MCT based on pyridin-2-ylmethyl-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde and 1-(4-methyl-3,5-dimethylisoxazole)-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde with chitosan (CT). The structural features of CSB polymers were confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR) spectroscopy and their antimicrobial activity was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans. The antioxidant studies found that both 2PCT and 4MCT presented significant free radical scavenging activity with IC 50 at 169.01 and 372.84 μg/mL, respectively. The cell viability results obtained from in vitro cytotoxicity studies performed using human monocyte leukemia (THP-1) cells were found to be 75.6 ± 0.25 % and 79.1 ± 1.5 % for 2PCT and 4MCT, respectively, at a concentration of 10 mg/mL. Flow cytometry analysis demonstrated the reducing ability of CSB polymers on intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in THP-1 cells. The overall results of antioxidant activity, in vitro biocompatibility and ability to reduce the intracellular ROS production emphasized that the CSB polymers prepared could serve as a potential biomaterial in biomedical applications, such as wound treatment process.
