Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The nanoparticles being the most utilized invention of nanoscience and technology, which is used in many aspects of science and medicine. These remarkable utilization of particles is due to their diverse properties at nano level. The chemical and physical approach to formation of nanoparticles are toxic to surroundings also leading to less efficient usage of them in medical perspective. In this article green synthesis of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles is done by sol-gel auto combustion using Caralluma Tuberculata extract as reducing agent, iron nitrate and cobalt nitrate as precursor salts. Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles are used in many aspects for certain properties such as antimicrobial activities the synthesized particles were characterized using different techniques such as UV Spectroscopy, SEM, FTIR, XRD,EDX. The antibacterial activity of cobalt ferrite nanoparticles is performed which shows remarkable results by increasing the inhibition zone for both E coli and Staphylococcus bacteria
