Antibacterial Fe3O4 nanoparticles: synthesis and characterization
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
The current article deals a simple and one step method for the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and its antibacterial application. Fe3O4 nanoparticles have been synthesized by solvothermal reduction of FeCl3 in the presence of oleylamine. Nanoparticles thus obtained have been characterized by using TEM, XRD and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Antibacterial test explicitly demonstrate that Fe3O4 synthesized using solvothermal method, is an excellent antibacterial material for E coliand Streptococcus Pneumonia. This is a dose dependent effect and has different effects on gram positive and gram negative bacteria.
