ABSTRACT
A chemical co-precipitation route was used to synthesize novel strontium oxide (SrO), SrO-starch composite and various tellurium (Te) concentrations were incorporated in SrO-starch composite. This study aims to enhance the catalytic activities and bactericidal behavior of SrO, SrO-starch composite with different percentage concentrations of Te doping and a fixed amount of starch nanoparticles. XRD affirmed that the dopant contribution was investigated to improve crystallinity. Surface morphological characteristics and elemental composition evaluation were determined using an FE-SEM and EDS exhibit a doping concentration of an element in the synthesized products. The configuration of Sr-O-Sr bonds and molecular vibrations has been indicated by FTIR spectra. In addition, dye degradation of prepared samples was investigated through catalytic activity (CA) in the existence of NaBH4 act as a reduction representative. The Te-doped SrO-starch composite indicates superior catalytic activity and shows a degradation of Methylene blue dye (91.4 %) in an acidic medium. The synthesis nanocatalyst demonstrated impressive antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) at high and low concentrations exhibiting zones of inhibition 9.30 mm as compared to ciprofloxacin. Furthermore, molecular docking studies of synthesized nanocomposites were performed against selected enzyme targets, i.e., ß-lactamaseE.coli and DNA GyraseE.coli.
