A lecturer in the Physics department at Samarra University publishes scientific research in the Scopus Q1 index journal
Assist. Lect. Huthaifa Muhi Mohammed, a faculty member in the College of Education for Pure Sciences at the University of Samarra, published a scientific paper in the Karbala International Journal of Modern Science, which is classified within the First Quartile (Q1) in the Scopus database.
The research was titled: “Synthesis and Characterization of Iron-Zinc Bimetallic Nanoparticles by Two-Step Laser Ablation Technique and Their Antibacterial Activity.”
In his study, Mohammed investigated the physical properties of the synthesized nanoparticles using a set of analytical techniques, including X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy (UV-Vis), to confirm their structural shape, composition, and optical properties.
In the same context, the biological tests of the nanoparticles demonstrated a high ability to inhibit two common types of bacteria, one Gram-positive and the other Gram-negative, indicating the promising effectiveness of these particles as antimicrobial agents, opening new horizons for them in medical and therapeutic applications.
The Department of Media and Governmental Communication extends its congratulations to the lecturer in the Department of Physics at the College of Education for Pure Sciences for his new scientific achievement, wishing him continued success in his research endeavors.
