Effect Of Biosynthesized Iron Oxide Nanoparticles Against Anterior Flagella of Leishmania Tropica

Abstract

Due to the importance of nanotechnology in medicine and its remarkable and significant development in the process of delivering treatment, in this study, iron oxide nanoparticles were bio-synthesised in the aqueous extract of the peels of the Annona squamosa, and then their inhibitory efficacy against the frontal flagella of the cutaneous Leishmania tropica parasite. Where the nanoparticles caused a decrease in parasite numbers within 96 hours of the start of growth, as well as a significant decrease in the total proteins of the parasite. (SEM), as well as infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the results of XRD showed the size of the nanoscale (35) nanometers, as the biofabrication of nanoparticles is a safe and inexpensive method and one of the excellent factors for treatment.
