dc.description.abstractBacterial species referred to as magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) biomineralize iron oxides and iron sulphides inside the cell. Bacteria can arrange themselves passively along geomagnetic field lines with the aid of these iron components known as magnetosomes. In this study, magnetosome nanoparticles, which were obtained from the taxonomically identified MTB isolate Providencia sp. PRB-1, were characterized and their antibacterial activity was evaluated. An in vitro test showed that magnetosome nanoparticles significantly inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus sp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Magnetosomes were found to contain cuboidal iron crystals with an average size of 42 nm measured by particle size analysis and scanning electron microscope analysis. The energy dispersive X-ray examination revealed that Fe and O were present in the extracted magnetosomes. The extracted magnetosome nanoparticles displayed maximum absorption at 260 nm in the UV-Vis spectrum. The distinct magnetite peak in the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy spectra was observed at 574.75 cm?1. More research is needed into the intriguing prospect of biogenic magnetosome nanoparticles for antibacterial applications.en_US
