Owing to Mössbauer spectroscopy, an advanced characterization technique for iron-containing materials, the present study reveals previously unknown possibilities using l-amino acids for the generation of magnetic particles. Based on our results, a simple choice of the order of l-amino acids addition into a reaction mixture containing ferrous ions leads to either superparamagnetic ferric oxide/o...

Nanoparticles (NPs) have great potential for use in the fields of biomedicine, building materials, and environmental protection because of their antibacterial properties. However, there are few reports regarding the antifungal activities of NPs on plants. In this study, we evaluated the antifungal roles of NPs against Botrytis cinerea, which is a notorious worldwide fungal pathogen. Three commo...

The most recent advancements in food science and technology include cold sterilization of fresh-keeping packaging. Active packaging has received much interest due to the photocatalytic activity (PCA) functional nanoparticles, including titanium dioxide (TiO2) ferric oxide (Fe2O3). However, there are still significant concerns about toxicity safety these nanoparticles. This review emphasizes bac...

Ferric oxide (Fe2O3) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3) particles are widely encountered in occupational settings. Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), a well-characterized environmental carcinogen, is frequently adsorbed onto particles. It has been shown that B[a]P-coated Fe2O3 particles (B[a]P-Fe2O3) significantly increased lung tumors in the hamster in contrast to B[a]P-coated Al2O3 (B[a]P-Al2O3) or B[a]P alone....

In this paper, ferric oxide nanoparticles) Fe2O3 NPs( were synthesized directly on a quartz substrate in vacuum by pulse laser deposition technique using Nd:YAG at different energies (171, 201,363 mJ/pulse). The slides then heated to 700o C for 1 hour. structural, optical, morphological, and electrical properties studied. optical indicated that the prepared thin films have an energy gap ranging...

Silane modified iron (III) oxide (SiFe2O3) nanoparticles reinforced chitosan (CS) nanocomposite membranes were prepared by solcast transformation method. The iron (III) oxide nanoparticles and nanocomposite membranes were investigated by UV (Visible) spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, XRD, SEM and TEM. The size and shape of iron (III) oxide and Si-Fe2O3 nanoparticles were determined by XRD and T...

Background & Aims: Iron is an essential element for correct brain function. Iron deficiency changes some behaviors such as anxiety and nociception. Recently, nano-iron, Ferric or ferro oxide (nano-Fe2O3 or Fe3O4), are used in various applications in agriculture, industry and medicine, but their effects on the heath and behavior is not clear. In this study, the effects of Fe2O3 nanoparticles on ...

Nanoparticles (NPs) of lead tetroxide (Pb3O4) with the spherical morphology were manufactured by reaction nitrate sodium hydroxide, while nanoparticles red iron oxide (Fe2O3) similar fabricated hydrothermal route in presence ferric chloride hexahydrate as precursor. Evaluation chemical structure, purity and Fe2O3 Pb3O4 NPs was carried out analysis via X-ray diffraction (XRD) well scanning elect...

iron oxide is an important biological agent that has a key role in medical processes; however, the mechanism whereby it provides iron for human and animal cells and its biological uses remains unclear. we aimed to evaluate the effects of oral iron oxide on serum iron status and compare the results with those of iron sulfate as a reference salt. fifteen adult rabbits were divided into 3 groups o...
