[ 1 ] - A comparative study of antibacterial effects of mouthwashes containing Ag/ZnO or ZnO nanoparticles with chlorhexidine and investigation of their cytotoxicity
Objective(s): Chlorhexidine 0.2% mouthwash is commonly used in orthodontic patients for plaque control. But it has some side effects. Metal oxide nanoparticles have been recently used in mouthwashes in reports. So we aimed to evaluate antibacterial effect of ZnO and Ag/ZnO nanoparticles against Streptococcus mutans and compare them with chlorhexidine 0.2%, sodium fluoride 0.05% and some of thei...
[ 2 ] - A novel MRI contrast agent synthesized by ion exchange method
Objective: In this study, the zeolite-coated iron oxide nanoparticles were evaluated as MRI contrast agent and effect of the nanocomposite synthesis method on MRI contrast was tested. Materials and Methods: Ion exchange method was used for synthesis of iron oxide-zeolite and the as prepared nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, FESEM and TEM. The nanocomposite toxicity in the cell culture, a...
[ 3 ] - A New Potential Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Iron Oxide-4A Nanocomposite
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents have an important role to differentiate healthy and diseased tissues. Access and design new contrast agents for the optimal use of MRI are necessary. This study aims to evaluate iron oxide–4A nanocomposite ability to act as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast agent.Materials and Methods: Iron oxide–4A nanocomposite (F4A) was syn...
