The films were characterized by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The films obtained were loaded with a model drug tetracycline by freezing/thawing method. The cumulative drug release properties of tetracycline were investigated. The release of tetracycline from the polymer matrix was carried out in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) buffer (pH 7.4) at 37 °C. It was found that the REE-doped composite films had a retarding effect on tetracycline drug release compared to that of the undoped film. All tested composites regardless of the REE dopant content were found to be active against three Gram-positive and three Gram-negative bacterial strains used to assess the antimicrobial properties of the polymer composites. These findings demonstrated that lanthanum and tetracycline have a high affinity for the Ch—g-poly(HEMA) polymer and suggested a synergistic effect in the polymer—lanthanum—tetracycline system. The La3+-doped Ch—g-poly(HEMA) composite film can be used as drug carrier system in the biomedical field.</dc:description><dc:publisher>Springer</dc:publisher><dc:date>2024</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/munzur/2189</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.1007/s11172-024-4463-8</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>1066-5285</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>Russian Chemical Bulletin</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://munzur-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/munzur/2189</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
