background: bone tissue engineering requires materials that are biocompatible, mechanically suited for bone function, integrated with the host skeleton, and support osteoinduction of the implanted cells for new bone formation. the aim of this study was to compare the osteogenic potential of xenograft with hydroxyapatite/β- tricalcium phosphate (ha/β-tcp) scaffold. methods: new zealand rabbits (...

limn2o4 spinel cathode materials have been successfully synthesized by solid-state reaction. surface of these particles were modified by nanostructured lifepo4 via sol gel dip coating method. synthesized products were characterized by thermally analyzed by thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis(tg/dta), x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), and energy dispers...

tricalcium phosphate as hydroxyapatite is used as a suspension stabilizer in styrene polymerization process. particle size of tcp plays an essential role in the particles’ size distribution and geometrical form of polystyrene products. as the particle size of tcp is reduced, there will be much better chance to engulf the styrene particles. the higher the number of tcp particles surrounding each...

native phosphate solubilizing bacteria (psb) were isolated from four areas (ankober, keyt, mehalmeda and molale) of ethiopia to study their effect on releases of soluble phosphorus from insoluble p sources. the highest bacterial number was found at keyt (2.6103 g-1soil) and the least at molale (15 g-1soil). five efficient psb were selected for further study based on their ability in forming a ...

the photocatalytic degradation of betamethasone sodium phosphate was investigated in aqueoussuspensions of zinc oxide nanoparticular with diameter size 20 nm under a variety of conditions.different parameters such as irradiation time, the amount catalyst (0.12-0.8 g lh), initialconcentration of drug (10-50 mgljand initial ph values (ranging from 3 to ii) were investigatedin the presence of vari...

the paper is focused on the formation of calcium phosphate nanoparticles (cp) in polyelectrolyte-modified microemulsions, in a microemulsion template phase consisting of cyclohexane, water, anionic surfactantant and cosurfactant, in the presence of anionic and cationic polyelectrolyte. it is shown that polyelectrolyte, can be incorporated into the individual inverse microemulsion droplets. the ...

A study was undertaken to determine the effects of different biofertilizers on growth and seed barley, Bahman cultivar in Iran. The trial was laid out in RCBD with split plot arrangement having three replications during 2011-12 and at Boroujerd, Iran. Treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (Nitroksin, Nitrokara and Supernitroplass) and three phosphate  biofrtilizers (Phosphate barvar2, Bi...
