Biosynthesis and characterization of α-FeOOH nanoparticles using Isabella grape (Vitis Labrusca L.) extract

Abstract

The advancement of environmentally sustainable and eco-friendly approaches to nanoparticle synthesis has gained significant importance in analytical chemistry. This research examined the green synthesis of iron oxyhydroxide nanoparticles, utilizing Vitis labrusca L. extract as both a reducing and stabilizing agent. The application of this natural extract offers an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional chemical synthesis techniques and is expected to meet the growing demand for sustainable applications. The synthesized iron oxyhydroxide nanoparticles were characterized using advanced techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), to verify their composition and structure. The findings reveal the successful synthesis of iron oxyhydroxide nanoparticles with a uniform size distribution and excellent stability.
