Nanoparticles of bismuth oxide were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal process which included Bismuth (III) nitrate (Bi(NO3)3.6H2O), sodium hydroxide(NaOH) and Nitric acid(HNO3) without further purification along with ultra-pure water. To investigate the structural, optical, and photocatalytic activity of two samples (1:5) and (1:6) respectively with two different NaOH precipitating agent molar ratios. The prepared nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis’s spectrometer, scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray Photo electron Spectroscopy (XPS). Based on the obtained results the hydrothermally synthesized Bi2O3 NPs exhibit good efficiency to photocatalytic degradation of Methylene blue under the irradiation of LED white light.
Composites of Telluride are an extremely rare element most commonly used in combination with other metals to increase their machinability and bioactivity due to its mild toxic nature. Bacteria are currently used to separate a number of elements from their sources, most notably in the bioleaching of Zinc and Silver from their ores. Using biosynthesis method Zn doped AgTe materials were synthesized and characterized by using X-ray Diffractometer, Fourier Transform Spectroscopy and its applications of bacterial results. From structural studies the crystal size was nearly 52 nm, and FTIR spectrometer shows the vibrational frequency of the Zn doped AgTe NPs. Five different bacterial strains both positive and negative and its bioactivity can be measured. The results that were obtained in this research including the Zones of Inhibition (mm) for all the gram positive and gram negative bacteria that were bio assayed in this research.
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.
