Cd-Gd-doped nickel spinel ferrite nanoparticles and their nanocomposites with reduced graphene oxide for catalysis and antibacterial activity studies

During the past few decades, rapid industrialization of the world communities and over use of antibiotics in the medical field have badly influenced our natural ecosystem. Now, these ever-worsening issues have succeeded in drawing the attention of the researchers. In this connection, we have fabricated binary metal substituted nickel ferrite (Ni0.96Cd0.04Gd0.04 Fe1.96O4, NCGF) and its nanocomposite with r-GO via wet chemical method. The...
