چکیده
A double-blind cross-over study was performed to evaluate the inhibitory activity of silver zeolite (SZ) mouthrinse on plaque formation. Eleven dental students participated in this study. SZ mouthrinse was prepared by suspending SZ powder into phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) at a concentration of 3% (w/w). Type-A zeolite was used as a placebo. Before the experiment, the subjects were rendered plaquefree by professional prophylaxis. They then suspended any oral hygiene for five days, during which time they rinsed with either SZ or type-A zeolite mouthrinse twice a day. SZ significantly reduced plaque formation compared to the placebo (p < 0.05), suggesting that silver ions released from the SZ inhibited plaque formation. NLM PUBMED CIT.

Exploring the influence of the surface resistance of nanoporous particles on molecular transport
Molecular transport through the nanoporous particles, in particular, zeolite crystallites, is influenced both by intracrystalline diffusion and surface resistance. In comparison to zeolite crystallites with ideal structure, molecular transport in real-world zeolite particles may often be influenced by the surface barriers resulting from various defects at the surface of the crystallite. The pot...
متن کاملLong-range diffusion in beds of nanoporous particles: pitfalls and potentials.
Owing to the recent progress in the area of hardware and software of the pulsed field gradient NMR technique, molecular transport in real-life zeolite systems, such as zeolite beds and particles of formulated fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts, can be investigated in detail. These studies have revealed a number of important features of molecular transport in zeolites, which are reviewed i...
متن کاملSustainable production of acrylic acid: alkali-ion exchanged beta zeolite for gas-phase dehydration of lactic acid.
Gas-phase dehydration of lactic acid (LA) to acrylic acid (AA) was investigated over alkali-exchanged β zeolite (M(x)Na(1-x)β, M=Li(+), K(+), Rb(+), or Cs(+)) of different exchange degrees (x). The reaction was conducted under varying conditions to understand the catalyst selectivity for AA production and trends of byproduct formation. The nature and exchange degree of M(+) were found to be cri...
متن کاملPreliminary Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies of H-Y Zeolite in a Non-Rigid Zeolite Framework
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of non-rigid H-Y zeolite framework are performed at 298.15 and 5.0 K. Usual bond stretching, bond angle bending, torsional rotational, and non-bonded Lennard-Jones and electrostatic interactions are considered as intraframework interaction potentials. Calculated atomic parameters are in good agreement with the experiment, which indicates the successful reprodu...
