Abstract

The silver chromite (Ag0.5Cr2.5O4) nanoparticles were prepared by one of the easiest wet chemical flash method. Thermal stability was appeared at high annealing temperature 900 °C. The crystallite and particle size was estimated, from X-ray diffraction peaks and from the field emission scanning electron microscopy, to be about 47.9 and 65.1 nm respectively. The composition of the investigated sample was determined using the X-ray dispersion analysis and the sample is single phase spinel structure. Thus, this is an evidence that Ag0.5Cr2.5O4 nanoparticles was prepared at this high annealing temperature (900 °C). From the magnetic measurements, a superparamagnetic behavior was appeared and it can be used strongly in antimicrobial application. During this application, Ag0.5Cr2.5O4 nanoparticles showed strong antibacterial activity against Gram-positive microorganisms. Thus, it is highly recommended to use Ag0.5Cr2.5O4 nanoparticles to be as antibacterial drug against Gram-positive bacteria.
