Özet

Especially, most papers have reported an increase in antibiotic resistance (AR) bacterial infections during the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) should be controlled and reduced. Researchers have reported that the adsorption technique is an sufficient procedure for separating drugs such as antibiotics from aqueous solutions. The prepared of ZnO/BaTiO3 nanocomposite using Elaeagnus Angustifolia L. leaf extract was successfully obtained using green route. The synthesized nanocomposite was interacted with ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CPF) to aim at eliminating the antibiotic from aqueous solutions. The incorporation of Elaeagnus Angustifolia leaf extract onto ZnO/BaTiO3 proved a sustainable chemistry study. Hence, this study indicated that green nanoparticles include neither the use of hazardous chemicals nor toxic chemicals. FTIR, XRD, and SEM-EDX analyses were applied to give information about the structural properties of the green nanocomposite. Box-Behnken design (BBD) was executed by response surface methodology (RSM) to gain optimal conditions. The effect of pH, initial concentration of CPF, and nanocomposite dose on CPF-nanocomposite interaction was examined. The experimental findings of adsorption study revealed that the optimal adsorption capacity of CPF onto ZnO/BaTiO3 was found as 125.29 mgg-1 under optimal conditions (adsorbent dose: 3.00 mg, pH value of solution: 9.88, initial concentration CPF: 49.63 mgL-1).
