Abstract
, the zone of inhibition of Ag was higher as compared to that of the Ni and Cu NPs, however, slightly low from that of the reference standard tetracycline TE30. Furthermore, the synthesized catalysts were extensively characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses.
