Synthesis of Iron Oxide (γ-Fe2O3) Nanoparticles Using Antiviral M. Parviflora L (Mallow) Plant Growing in the Aegean Region and Investigation of Antibacterial Properties

Öz

Maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) among magnetic nanomaterials in recent years has gained an important research field in the fields of biology, chemistry, metallurgy due to its natural biocompatible nature, oxidation stability and good magnetic properties. It has applications in areas such as cancer therapy, gene research, and drug chemistry. Extremely promising due to its non-toxic and environmentally friendly behavior, iron oxide in nanoscale has been synthesized via the highly applied green synthesis recently. In this study, nanoscale maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) was synthesized from hexahydrate ferric chloride (FeCl3.6H2O) using M. parviflora L (mallow) leaf extract. The synthesis of nano iron oxides obtained was characterized by using UV-Vis, FTIR, XRD, FESEM, EDX. The antimicrobial activity of γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles was achieved by disk diffusion method.

Öz

Son yıllarda manyetik nanomalzemeler arasında maghemit (γ-Fe2O3), doğal biyouyumlu doğası, oksidasyon kararlılığı ve iyi manyetik özellikleri nedeniyle biyoloji, kimya, metalurji alanlarında önemli bir araştırma alanı kazanmıştır. Kanser tedavisi, gen araştırmaları, ilaç kimyası gibi alanlarda uygulamaları mevcuttur. Toksin olmaması ve çevre dostu davranışı nedeniyle son derece umut verici olan son zamanlarda oldukça popüler yöntem olan yeşil sentez yoluyla nano boyutta demir oksit sentezlenmiştir. Bu çalışmada, nano ölçekli maghemit (γ-Fe2O3), antiviral özellikli M. parviflora L (ebegümeci) yaprağı ekstresi kullanılarak hekzahidrat ferrik klorürden (FeCl3.6H2O) sentezlenmiştir. Elde edilen nano demir oksitlerin sentezi UV-Vis, FTIR, XRD, FESEM, EDX kullanılarak karakterize edilmiştir. γ-Fe2O3 nanopartiküllerinin antimikrobiyal aktivitesi, disk difüzyon yöntemi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.
