Abstract

Silver vanadate nanorods synthesized via chemical precipitation route at room temperature were characterized using UV/Vis. optical electronic spectra, fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM, SEM), Zeta potential and X-ray diffraction (XRD). XRD indicates the presence of both β and α phases of silver vanadate. Chitosan samples filled with pre-calculated amounts of synthesized silver vanadate nano-rods were prepared via ordinary casting route. XRD of the prepared polymeric samples reveals amorphous nature and indicating a homogenous distribution of inorganic filler within the matrix without any tendency for crystallization. FTIR shows maintenance of chitosan characteristic bands in all samples. Optical energy gap for both direct and indirect transitions generally indicates a gradual decrease with increasing inorganic filler content. The biological activity against two-gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis), two gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeuroginosa) in addition to one fungus (Candida albicans) were also studied and correlated with both optical energy gap and nanoparticle dopant concentration.
