Summary

Introduction

Nanoparticle is a new innovation of using particles in a new size which ranged from 100 nanometers that equal 1 X10-6 meter. In this study we evaluated the antifungal effect of Fe2O3 and Fe3O4 nanoparticles on Aspergillus flavus (KP137700) selected for the study isolated from broiler feed was isolated from broiler feed by Mycology Department of. The antifungal effect Fe2O3 and Fe3O4 nanoparticles against Aspergillus flavus measured by MIC method and evaluated by scanning electron microscope. Pharmaceutical nanotechnology with numerous advantages has growingly attracted the attention of many researchers. Size range from approximately from 1 nm to 100 nm This definition is accompanied by two notes: Note 1: Properties that are not extrapolations from a larger size will typically, but not exclusively, be exhibited in this size range. For such properties the size limits are considered approximate. Development of new and effective antimicrobial agents seems to be of paramount importance, through the antimicrobial activity of metals having various properties, potencies and spectra of activity, has been known and applied for centuries especially in nano-size (Malarkodi et al, 2014)
