Characterization and microstructure analysis of sodium alginate incorporate with iron (III) oxide for biomedical application
This research focuses on the characterisation of sodium alginate incorporated with Iron (III) oxide for biomedical applications. First, biofilm and bead samples with and without 0.1 g, 0.2 g, and 0.3 g iron (III)oxide particles are prepared by manual syringe technique and solution casting. Next, s...

Summary: | This research focuses on the characterisation of sodium alginate incorporated with Iron (III) oxide for biomedical
applications. First, biofilm and bead samples with and without 0.1 g, 0.2 g, and 0.3 g iron (III)oxide particles are prepared
by manual syringe technique and solution casting. Next, sodium alginate biofilms and beads incorporated with and without
Iron (III) particles were analysed by microstructure using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Energy–dispersive X-Ray
Spectroscopy (EDS) analysis was applied as well to reveal the chemical elements present in the sample. The samples were
characterised using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) analysis. Microstructure analysis
results revealed that the microstructure of 0.1g, 0.2g, and 0.3g beads varied due to the amount of iron (III) oxide particles.
Meanwhile, EDS detected that the chemical elemental present were mainly |
