Abstract

Our ongoing research involves the synthesis of iron nanoparticles through a multi-step procedure that includes intricate processes resulting in the disruption of the bonds between the fundamental components of the oyster shell. As a result, we successfully extract iron nanoparticles from oyster shell powder. The obtained iron nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and FTIR-Based Analysis. These techniques confirmed that the nanoparticles possess the standard properties and meet the optimal specifications necessary for their function as an antibiotic to suppress bacterial action.

Objective: Our research aims to biologically generate iron nanoparticles from oyster shells, meeting conventional standards that enable them to function as antibiotics.

Methods: Our research employs a method for producing iron nanoparticles that involves a series of processes combined with the addition of chemicals that disrupt the bonds between the fundamental constituents of the oyster shell. This shell is first purified and then ground into a powder.

Results And Characterization: The results were obtained using the SPSS statistical program, and the size of the iron particles was determined using the XRD crystallite (grain) calculator, specifically the Scherrer Equation. The characteristics acquired from the steps involving Fe NPs in our ongoing study are confirmed based on the measurements conducted using X-ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and FTIR-Based Analysis. These measurements indicate that the particles have a satisfactory size range of 30-100 nanometers.Conclusion: We conclude from our current study that there are no significant differences between the number of patients and the three stages type that recorded through this periodic time, even if there is a difference in age and gender.
