Abstract
electron microscopy, were 12.57 nm and 10.70 nm, respectively. Nanoparticles have previously been shown to have antifungal activities, and SPIONPs and AgNPs can show antifungal resistance. These NPs can be used as a substitute for widely used toxic fungicides to promote food safety and public health.
