Abstract

In this work, we have described the antibacterial activities of Fe3O4 nanoparticles with different organic parts, including Humic acid (HA), Nicotinic acid (Nico) and Histidine (His), and the antibacterial activity of MnFe2O4 nanoparticles coated with PANI and SiO2 against different bacteria and some standard antibacterial drugs. The present study revealed that the newly fabricated various Fe3O4 and MnFe2O4 nanocomposites, when combined with some different organic parts, are superiour antibacterial agents. Also, the synthesized nanocomposites can be easily separated from aqueous solution by magnetic filtration without any contamination of the medium.
