Synthesis of Fe/β-cyclodextrin complex and its antioxidant Catalase activity

Fe/β-cyclodextrin was synthesized under ultrasound irradiation to mimic the functionality of catalase for converting H2O2 to H2O and O2 .The catalyst was characterized by FT-IR and EDX analysis. To investigate the effect of Fe/β-cyclodextrin on H2O2 scavenging, the UV‐ VIS spectrophotometry was used to determine the catalytic activity. The results showed that the prepared complexe has high performance in H2O2 decomposition and presents an excellent mimic for catalase enzyme
