Abstract Yttrium-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method to investigate structural, optical and antibacterial properties.X-ray diffraction analysis confirms hexagonal (wurtzite) structure with average crystallite size between 16 and 30 nm.Optical energy band beer button down shirts for men gap decreaseswith increasing Y-doping concentration.ZnO nanoparticles were found apunisw2 to be highly effective against S.

aureus and Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles against E.coli, B.subtilis and S.typhi.

Undoped and Y-doped ZnO nanoparticles are good inorganic antimicrobial agents and can be synthesized by cost effective co-precipitation method.
