Alumina is one of the most widely used ceramic materials as catalysts, catalyst supports and absorbents, and also wear resistant coating. This study focused on fabricating and characterizing of alumina ceramic nanoparticles fabricated using new and simple sol-gel method. Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles were synthesized by iron (III) nitrate 9-hydrate as precursor. Physicochemical properti...

a simple, selective and efficient solid phase extraction method based on the use of  γ-alumina nanoparticles coated with sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) and modified with 2-​(5-​bromo-​2-​pyridylazo)​-​5-​(diethylamino) ​phenol (5-br-padap) as a new adsorbent was developed for the separation and preconcentration of trace amounts of manganese (ii) prior to determination by flame atomic absorption s...

25 Improvement of lung cancer radiotherapy using gold nanoparticles and gamma ray photons with high energy. Najam Abed Askouri AlFarabi Institute for High study ,Holy Najaf, Iraq E-mail:[email protected] Abstract : Since the lung tissue has small cross section so that we can introduce an agent to enhance the local cross section. Among nanomaterials gold nanoparticles (GNPs) has significant ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the activity of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) when it was either adsorbed onto or loaded into albumin nanoparticles. Brucella abortus-infected macrophages and infected BALB/c mice were selected as the models for testing of the therapeutic potentials of these cytokine delivery systems, in view of the well-established role of IFN-gamma-activated macrophages fo...

The morphology of nano gamma alumina affects the molecule adsorption-desorption phenomena. In this case, manipulating surface area, pore volume, and size by technique preparation to control textural properties alumina. Washing synthesized boehmite gel with methanol has a significant effect. co-precipitation method was used prepare alumina, which is involved adding drop-by-drop ammonium hydroxid...

thermoluminecsence (tl) characteristics of pure caso4 nanoparticles produced by co-precipitation method are presented. the formation of the nanoparticles was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscope (sem). tl glow curve of this phosphor, exposed to gamma radiation exhibits five overlapping glow peaks in the complex glow curve at 463, 470, 483, 498 and521(k) respecti...

Mesoporous gamma alumina fibres of high surface area, stable up to 1000 oC, were synthesized by bioreplica technique using sisal fibres as templates. Alumina formation during pyrolysis and calcination of fibres infiltrated with aluminium chloride solution has been studied, paying special attention to the interaction between the precursor and sisal fibres, using several experimental techniques s...

A precise control of the dimension of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in their vertical array could enable many promising applications in various fields. Here, we demonstrate the growth of vertically aligned, single-walled CNTs (VA-SWCNTs) with diameters in the sub-1.5-nm range (0.98 ± 0.24 nm), by engineering a catalyst support layer of alumina via thermal annealing followed by ion beam treatment. We ...

Gold nanoparticles are promising as a kind of novel radiosensitizer in radiotherapy. If gold nanoparticles are shown to have good irradiation stability and biocompatibility, they would play an important role in radiotherapy. In this work, we investigated irradiation effects of gold nanoparticles under 2-10 kR gamma irradiation and cytotoxicity of gold nanoparticles with human K562 cells by usin...
