| Summary: | In this study, a (Poly anthranilic acid (PANA)- Graphene Oxide (GO) nanosheets, Zinc Oxide
(ZnO) nanorods) ternary nanocomposite was synthesized. The prepared compounds (PANA,
GO, ZnO and the (PANA-GO-ZnO) nanocomposite were characterized through FTIR, XRD,
SEM, and thermal analysis. The analyses revealed that GO consisted of nanostructures in sheet
form, ZnO consisted of rod-shaped structures with dimensions varying between 39 and 63 nm,
and the polymer appeared in regular, sphere-like shapes with different diameters. Thermal
analyzes of the polymer showed that the polymer (PANA) partially decomposes in the
temperature range (145.3-315.6 o C), and completely decomposes at (315.6, 541.9 o C), which
means that the polymer is thermally stable. The ternary nanocomposite was employed to assess
their efficacy against four distinct bacterial strains (Staphylococcus aurous, Staphylococcus
epidermidis, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella sp.) and one fungal strain (Candida albicans). It was
also found that this compound has a high effectiveness in inhibiting the tested microorganisms.
