Invitro Anti-Bacterial and Anti-Oxidative Activity of GlycyrrhizaGlabra L. from North of Golestan Province
ABSTRACT Background and Objective: Glycyrrhizaglabra L. is one of the most widely used medicinal herbs in Golestan province that is known for its anti-inflammatory, carminative, antiviral, anti-infection and anti-ulcer properties in Iranian traditional medicine. This study aimed to assess the anti-bacterial and anti-oxidative activity of G. glabrafrom th...
متن کاملProteolytically activated anti-bacterial hydrogel microspheres.
Hydrogels are finding increased clinical utility as advances continue to exploit their favorable material properties. Hydrogels can be adapted for many applications, including surface coatings and drug delivery. Anti-infectious surfaces and delivery systems that actively destroy invading organisms are alternative ways to exploit the favorable material properties offered by hydrogels. Sterilizat...
متن کاملVisible-Light-Sensitive Photocatalysts: Nanocluster-Grafted Titanium Dioxide for Indoor Environmental Remediation.
Photocatalytic degradation of organic compounds requires photoexcited holes with strong oxidative power in the valence band (VB) of semiconductors. Although numerous types of doped semiconductors, such as nitrogen-doped TiO2, have been studied as visible-light-sensitive photocatalysts, the quantum yields of these materials were very low because of the limited oxidation power of holes in the nit...
متن کاملAssessment of anti-bacterial activity of non-thermal plasma in sterilization of infectious wastes
In today's world, the production of hospital wastes and their adverse effects such as infectious outbreaks and resistance to treatment is an important issue. Therefore, it's vital to find a new and efficient method to manage such wastes. In this study, the ability of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma to deactivate Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus bacter...
متن کاملUV-visible-light-activated photocatalysts based on Bi2O3/Bi4Ti3O12/TiO2 double-heterostructured TiO2 nanobelts†
Surface engineering of TiO2 nanobelts by the controlled assembly of functional heterostructures represents an effective approach for the synthesis of high-performance photocatalysts. In this study, we prepared a novel Bi2O3/Bi4Ti3O12/TiO2 double-heterostructured nanobelt by depositing bismuth hydroxide onto the TiO2 nanobelt surface. A thermal annealing treatment led to the formation of a Bi4Ti...
