background: new treatment modalities are developed with the aim of escalating tumor absorbed dose and simultaneously sparing the normal structures. the use of nanotechnology in cancer treatment offers some possibilities including destroying cancer tumors with minimal damage to healthy tissues. zinc oxide nanoparticles (zno nps) are wide band gap semiconductors and seem to have a good effect on ...

increasing demands for cement, iron and steel industries for refractories with suitable workability in severeconditions (without any environmental risks), make the refractories’ researches to be an active area. refractories containing spinel has been developed with addition of chromia as a substitute in refractories using magnesite - chromite. in this research, different amounts of cr2o3 were a...

in this paper, cuo nanoparticles  have been synthesized via solid-state thermal decomposition using copper(ii) schiff base complexes as new precursors at 600ºc under air atmosphere for 3 h. surface morphology of the products were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem).

this paper focused on a simple approach for synthesis of molybdenum oxide (moo3) nanoparticles and reports a facile route for synthesis of such nanoparticles, using microwave irradiation as a homogenous and powerful source of heating, using ethylene glycol as the solvent and heating medium. for more investigations, besides microwave heating, the obtained solutions were also treated by conventio...

in this research, the inhibitory effects of silver nanoparticles and zinc oxide nanoparticles,  in vitro, on disease stone fruits bacterial canker caused by pseudomonas syrigae pv. syringae and disease bacterial blight caused by xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis, were studied. different concentrations of nanoparticles were prepared on mueller hinton agar medium in two different ways in a com...

graphene oxide was prepared using modified hummers method. stable ethylene-glycol nanofluids containing graphene oxide nanosheets were provided. nd: yag pulsed laser was applied to prepare reduced nanofluids. experimental results revealed that thermal conductivity of the nanofluids is increased with increasing the concentration of graphene oxide (go) in ethylene glycol. the enhancement ratio of...

Background: During the initial phase of an infection, there is an upregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase in the macrophages for the production of nitric oxide. This is followed by the recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) which release arginase. Arginase competes with inducible nitric oxide synthase for a common substrate L-arginine. Objective: To investigate whethe...

In this study, an efficient and facile technique for preparing graphene oxide in suspension and powder forms was presented based on a modification on Hummers' method followed by an additional ultrasonic process. The method involved the provision of graphene oxide from graphite by reaction of potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid with stabilizing the medium complex. Furthermore, this study ev...

Reduced graphene oxide film was synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode by electro reduction of graphene oxide powders in aqueous solution. Then platinum nano particles were deposited on reduced graphene oxide film that was deposited on the glassy carbon electrode via electro reduction of platinum salt. The Physical morphology of the platinum on reduced graphene oxide film was evaluated by sca...
