Antimicrobial studies on iron oxide-dextran colloidal suspension

摘要

Iron oxide-dextran nanoparticle suspensions (IOD-NPsS) have attracted attention for their considerable applications in various biomedical area such as cosmetics, water remediation, hyperthermia, drug delivery or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast enhancement. In these research we report the antimicrobial studies on iron oxide-dextran colloidal suspension against prokaryotic cells such as Escherichia coli (E. coli). The ultrasound studies and dynamic light scattering (DLS) of iron oxide-dextran nanoparticle suspensions. According colloidal studies of the iron oxide suspension, the nanoparticles was in dispersed state.
