Green Synthesis of Iron Oxide Nanoparticle Using Kaempferia Galanga Extract and Its Antibacterial Activity

Nanoscience also has significant advances in obtaining environmentally friendly and sustainable products. Iron oxide nanoparticles, one of the metal oxide nanoparticles, have different forms and properties. In recent years, iron oxide nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized from various plant species using green synthesis pathways and have been analyzed for different bioactivity properties. In this study, iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using a completely non-hazardous method using Kaempferia galanga extract. The synthesized product was characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD). In addition, the antibacterial activity of the product was analyzed, and it was recorded that the nanoparticle has remarkable antibacterial activity.
