Abstract

In this study, the nano rods of molybdenum oxide were prepared by the thermo chemical method. The prepared molybdenum oxide nano rods were characterized by UV-Visible spectrophotometer, band gap energy, FT-IR spectrophotometer, XRD, SEM, and TEM techniques. The prepared molybdenum oxide nano rods were used for anti bacterial activity. The XRD analysis showed the formation of crystalline nano rods. The FT-IR and UV-Vis analysis give the peak at 1120 cm -1 and 246 nm which confirm the formation of nano rods. The SEM and TEM analysis also confirmed the formation of nano rods. The band gap energy of MoO 3 nano rods were observed 3.67, 3.54, 3.45 and 3.36 eV at 400, 500, 600 and 700°C temperatures. The MoO 3 nano rods gave the positive antibacterial activity against S. Aureus pathogens.
