Abstract

Iron (Fe) nanoparticles have been synthesized by simple co-precipitation method. The x-ray diffraction studies indicated the formation of Fe nanoparticles with cubic phase. Surface morphology of Fe and has been studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images reveal that Fe nanoparticle have size ranging from 25-41 nm. Also we have reported about the changes in the growth of piglets such as its body weight (kg), its haemoglobin (g %) level, its hematocrit (%) level and its erythrocyte count, when it was supplemented with different compositions of iron nanoparticles since iron is an integral component of hemoglobin which plays major role in supply of oxygen for normal functioning of body cells. Besides that iron is necessary for activity of several enzymes and catalytic pathways at cellular level.
