Özet

In every day, new nanoparticles have been synthesized, and their properties have been evaluated since their unique physical and chemical properties, which are very different from the precursors. Nanoscience also has significant advances in obtaining environmentally friendly and sustainable products. Iron oxide nanoparticles, one of the metal oxide nanoparticles, have different forms and properties. In recent years, iron oxide nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized from various plant species using green synthesis pathways and have been analyzed for different bioactivity properties. In this study, iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using a completely non -hazardous method using Ficus carica leaf extract. The synthesized product was characterized by SEM, EDX, XRD crystallography, FT-IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Characterization methods have shown that the product was synthesized in mixed form with 43-57 nm size. In addition, the antioxidant activity of the product was analyzed, and it was recorded that the nanoparticle has remarkable antioxidant activity.
