Abstract
Iron oxide-silver nanocomposites are of great interest for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. We report a two-step synthesis of functional magnetic hetero-nanocomposites of iron oxide nanoparticles and silver nanoparticles (Fe3O4-Ag). Iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared first by a co-precipitation method followed by the deposition of silver nanoparticles via a hydrothermal route. The prepared Fe3O4-Ag hetero-nanocomposites were characterized by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and vibrating sample magnetometry. Their antibacterial activities were investigated by using paper-disc diffusion and direct-drop diffusion methods. The results indicate that the Fe3O4-Ag hetero-nanocomposites exhibit excellent antibacterial activities against two Gram-negative bacterial strains (Salmonella enteritidis and Klebsiella pneumoniae).
