The enlarged central part M–H loop shows for the Co = 0.09 doped ZnO sample, the ferromagnetic (FM) behavior increased, i.e., a Mr of 0.2412 emu g−1 with a Hc of 85 Oe.
In present work, synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has been reported by utilizing tri-sodium citrate (TSC) as reducing and stabilizing agent. The effect of temperature and molar ratio of silver salt (AgNO3) and TSC has been studied on the size and morphology of nanoparticles. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized by Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD), UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis.), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Biological evaluation of the optimized AgNPs against strains of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria showed low to moderate values of inhibition zones as compared to standard rifampicin.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
