Abstract
Because of their effectiveness in scattering visible light and imparting whiteness, brightness, and high opacity, titanium dioxide nanoparticles are extensively used in plastic compositions. In addition, titanium dioxide's ability to absorb UV light radiation can considerably improve the weather ability and durability of polymer items. When chalking stability and color preservation are desired, titanium dioxide nanoparticles have been used in applications such as PVC window profiles and agricultural films. Commercially available titanium dioxide is rarely pure. Multilayer inorganic structures and, in some cases, organic treatments are applied to the surfaces of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles to improve compatibility and dispensability. Titanium dioxide is quite vital these days, especially for diabetics. As a result, we prepared for antibacterial action with titanium dioxide and the bacterium Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Titanium dioxide was pulverized and tested after being centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 minutes and incubated for 24 hours.
