staphylococcus aureus, as one of the main agentsfor hospital infections,is considered as highly important because they show resistance to a wide range of antibiotics.resistance to selective antibiotics such as vancomycin is a serious problemin the medical community; thus it seems rational to use alternative substances for treating these bacteria.the aim of this study isto investigate the preval...

in this study, the ultrasonic, photocatalytic and sonophotocatalytic degradation of organics in textile industrial effluent was studied using zno nano catalyst, zno nano catalyst was synthesized by using sol-gel method. the structure and morphology of the catalyst were investigated using scanning election microscopy (sem), electron dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (eds) and x-ray diffraction patte...

an important factor that interferes with the bonding between the root canal wall and resin cement is the root canal sealer remnant. there is controversy about the effect of eugenol-containing sealers on the bond strength between resin cements and fiber post. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the type of endodontic sealer on the bond strength of frc posts cemented with resin ce...

nowadays, nanoscale innovations in the forms of pathogen detection, active packaging, antimicrobial packaging and barrier formation are poised to elevate food packaging to new heights. antimicrobial nanocomposite ldpe films containing zno nanoparticles at different concentrations (e.g. 1%, 3%, 5%  and 3%  nano-zno pulse 10% polyethylene grafted maleic anhydride (pe-g-ma), w/w pure ldpe), were p...

in this study, tio2 and zno nanofilms were prepared by sol-gel spin-coating method. nanofilms were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), energy dispersive analysis of      x-ray (edx), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (fe-esm). structural and morphological properties of nanofilms were investigated. the average crystalline size of tio2 and zn...

here, in situ synthesis of nano zinc oxide, along with aminolysis of polyester fabric, has simultaneously been carried out by using triethanol amine (tea) and zinc acetate. the zno nano particles (nps) were formed and stabilized on the fabric surface by amine compound at 130 °c for 1 h. the synthesis of nano zno particles on the polyester fabric were confirmed by x-ray diffraction (xrd) pattern...

zno nanoparticles were synthesized by a microwave-assisted chemical method. zno nanostructures were synthesized via a fast reaction between zinc acetate and ammonia at presence citric acid and other effective agents in chemical procedure. nanostructures were characterized by x-ray diffraction , scanning electron microscopy. seed yield and seed quality of safflower grown under drought stress. th...

UNLABELLED The cellular responses of the J774 macrophage cell line to zinc oxide and zirconium oxide nanoparticles have been studied by a comparative quantitative, protein level based proteomic approach. The most prominent results have been validated by targeted approaches. These approaches have been carried out under culture conditions that stimulate mildly the aryl hydrocarbon receptor, there...

Dermal drug delivery is highly preferred by patients due to its several advantages. Protein therapeutics have attracted huge attention recently. Since dermal delivery of proteins encounter problems, in this investigation, zinc oxide nanoparticles and calcium phosphate nanoparticles were compared as enhancers for dermal permeation of albumin. Albumin was applied simultaneously with zinc oxide na...

The use of self-assembled biomacromolecules in the development of functional bionanocomposite foams is one of the best lessons learned from nature. Here, we show that monolithic, flexible and porous zinc oxide bionanocomposite foams with a hierarchical architecture can be assembled through the mediation of bacterial cellulose. The assembly is achieved by controlled hydrolysis and solvothermal c...
