Abstract

This study investigated the antimicrobial potential and structural characteristics of Fe-Ag-V nanoparticles synthesized from Psidium guajava leaves extract. The nanoparticles demonstrate significant antimicrobial efficacy against bacterial strains, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Bacillus cereus, with low Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) values. Synthesized eco-consciously, they offer promise in combating infections while supporting sustainability goals. Structural analysis via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) confirms their face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal structure and rod-like morphology with internal pores, suggesting diverse applications. DLS revealed an average particle diameter of approximately 94.59 nm, enhancing reactivity in catalysis and drug delivery. This study emphasizes the antimicrobial efficacy and structural attributes of Psidium guajava Extract-Derived Fe-Ag-V nanoparticles, suggesting their potential across scientific disciplines, from medicine to materials science, for combating infectious diseases sustainably.
