GREEN SYNTHESIS AND CHARATERIZATIONS OF THE IRON NANOPARTICLES (INPS) FROM ALLIUM SATIVUM (GARLIC) STEM EXTRACTION

Abstract

The main objective of the research was to explore the phytochemical composition of Allium Sativum (garlic) and prepare nanoparticles by extracting it by using its polar. A phytochemical screening test was carried out to identify the polar extraction of garlic. The results of the screening test indicating the presence of proteins, flavonoids, phenols and tannin compounds in the extract. Later on, iron nanoparticles (INPs) were also produced with the help of the extract. The produced INPs were analyzed by UV-visible spectroscopy and FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy). Analysis of the UV-visible and FTIR determined that the iron was present in the polar extract. The iron nanoparticles synthesized had a peculiar peak of 289 nm. Furthermore, the credit of synthesis of iron nanoparticles was attributed to the active phytochemical compounds in the extract.
