Triclosan is a diphenyl ether antimicrobial that has been analyzed by computational conformational chemistry for an understanding of Mechanomolecular Theory. Subsequent energy profile analysis combined with easily seen three-dimensional chemistry structure models for the nonpolar molecule Triclosan show how single bond rotations can alternate rapidly at a polar and nonpolar interface. Bond rota...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the subcutaneous tissue response in rats and the antimicrobial activity of intracanal calcium hydroxide dressings mixed with different substances against E. faecalis. Fifty four rats were divided into three experimental groups according to the vehicle in the calcium hydroxide treatment: 0.4% chlorohexidine in propylene glycol (PG),Casearia sylvestris Sw in ...

a type of novel hypercross-linked fiber adsorbent was obtained by sulfonation and cross-linking reaction of polypropylene fiber grafted styrene-divinylbenzene. the aim of the fiber sulfonation and cross-linking method was to prepare rigid three dimensional networks in the entire fiber and change the ion exchange capacity of fiber. the hypercross-linked fiber adsorbent possesses a principally di...

Silk is utilized as most valuable fibers based on the unique properties like shiny sheen, remarkable comfort performance and bio considerations. materials possess high applications a natural substrate in textile/garment industry component medical applications. As silk fine, delicate sensitive it needs more care to protect from ill effects of insects, light chemicals. Hence, this work an attempt...

In their review ‘Arming the enemy: the evolution of resistance to self-proteins’, Bell & Gouyon (2003) present an interesting perspective. They suggest that the introduction of cationic antimicrobial peptide antibiotics into general (clinical) use ‘may provoke the evolution of resistance to our own defence proteins and thus compromise our natural defences against infection’. I feel it is very a...

pp/pep blends, because of different solubility factors, are incompatible. the aim of this research was to use pp-g-ma compatibilizer in a two-component blend. after preparing this compatibilizer in internal mixer and investigating different parameters on producing process, optimum compatibilization was obtained. pp/pet (60/40) blend fibers with different percentages of this compatibilizer in tw...

Waste fibers produced from manufacturing processes are a byproduct commonly deposited in storing yards and/or landfills and thus results in many serious environmental problems in Iran. If these waste materials could be advantageously put to practical use in any application, it would reduce the burden on the environment and landfills. This paper compares the performance of the stone matrix aspha...
