Synthesis of ferrite nanoparticles Cu1−xAgxFe2O4 and evaluation of potential antibacterial activity

Copper-silver ferrite nanoparticles synthesized by a simple and rapid solution combustion method using glycine as complexing agent. Cu-Ag nanoparticles were and characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. In vitro assays were established as a means of evaluating the potentia...
