Abstract

The biological effect of iron nanoparticles with a size of 20–40nm obtained by the plasmochemical method are studied. An antibacterial effect on antibiotic resistant strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus is found at concentrations of iron nanoparticles in a range of 0.1–10 mg/mL. The toxic effect of iron nanoparticles administered this way is revealed in male mice, which is manifested in a change in biochemical parameters of carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolisms.
