Abstract

In the area of life sciences,iron nanoparticles (Fe NPs) have many applications. In this paper, the unique properties of iron nanoparticles as antimicrobials are studied. In this study, nanoparticles of iron have been fabricated by green and chemical reduction method. With the help of FESEM analysis and Zeta size analysis, the usual value of nanoparticles was found to be 10-30 nm in size. Furthermore, the prepared nanoparticles were examined for antibacterial perspective aligned with gram-positive and negative strains namely Staphylococcus aureus & Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli, using agar plate method and IC was also estimated using tube dilution assay.
