ABSTRACT

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanorods and nanoparticles had been successfully done by hydrothermal method and spray pyrolysis deposition technique, respectively. Form XRD results, crystallite structure for TiO2 nanorods is rutile phase at 2θ degree 27.5° which corresponded to [110] orientation. Whereas, TiO2 nanoparticles produced anatase phase at 2θ degree 25.3° which corresponded to [110] plane. The structure of nanorods and nanoparticles were characterized using FESEM. The size of nanorods was in the range of 80 to 100 nm. While, the nanoparticles size was ranging from 25 to 35 nm. The HeLa cells were grown on those TiO2 and were observed under fluorescence microscope. The cells showed healthy sign of growth on TiO2 nanorods and nanoparticles substrates. Thus, TiO2 nanorods and nanoparticles are biocompatible to HeLa cells.

ABSTRACT

Titanium dioksida (TiO2) berbentuk nanorod dan nanopartikel telah berjaya dihasilkan melalui kaedah hidroterma dan teknik semburan pirolisis. Analisis daripada XRD menunjukkan komposisi untuk TiO2 nanorod adalah fasa rutil pada darjah dengan bacaan 27.5° yang sepadan dengan jujukan [110]. Manakala nanopartikel TiO2 adalah fasa anatas pada darjah dengan bacaan 25.3° yang sepadan dengan jujukan [101]. Bentuk nano-silinder dan nano-partikel telah dianalisis menggunakan FESEM. Saiz nanorod adalah antara 80 dan 100 nm diameter. Selain itu, saiz nano-partikel adalah 25 hingga 35 nm diameter. Kemudian, sel HeLa telah dibiakkan di atas sampel TiO2 tersebut. Setelah itu, sel HeLa diperhatikan di bawah mikroskop pendarfluor. Keputusan menunjukkan pertumbuhan sel HeLa yang sihat pada TiO2 nano-silinder dan nano-partikel. Oleh itu, TiO2 nanorod dan nano-partikel menunjukkan keserasian biologi kepada sel HeLa.
