Abstract
The harmful cationic dyes present in industrial waste significantly decrease the effectiveness of remedy operations. Considering the horrendous impact of these dyes on the environment and biodiversity, silver bromide (AgBr) and chitosan (CS) doped copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) nanostructures (NSs) were prepared by the co-precipitation route. In this work, The surface characteristics of CuFe2O4 can be altered by CS, potentially enhancing its catalytic reaction compatibility. The functional groups in CS interact with the surface of CuFe2O4, influencing its catalytic behavior. AgBr can have an impact on the dynamics of charge carriers in the composite. Better charge separation and transfer which is essential for catalytic processes. The catalytic degradation of RhB was significantly enhanced (100 %) using 4 wt% of AgBr-doped CS-CuFe2O4 catalysts in a basic medium. The significant inhibitory zones (9.25 to 17.95 mm) inhibitory in maximum doses were seen against Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus). The bactericidal action of AgBr/CS-doped CuFe2O4 NSs against DNA gyraseS.aureus and tyrosyl-tRNAsynthetase S. aureus was rationalized using molecular docking studies, which supported their function as inhibitors.
