A high-throughput screening (HTS) method based on fluorescence imaging (FI) was implemented to evaluate the catalytic performance of selenide-modified nano-TiO2. Chemical ink-jet printing (IJP) technology was reformed to fabricate a catalyst library comprising 1405 (Ni(a)Cu(b)Cd(c)Ce(d)In(e)Y(f))Se(x)/TiO2 (M6Se/Ti) composite photocatalysts. Nineteen M6Se/Tis were screened out from the 1405 can...

Ultra-violet protection and self-cleaning action of nano zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium di-oxide (TiO2) with acrylic binder has been assessed on the cotton fabric using pad-dry-cure method. Different precursors, such as zinc acetate and titanium tetrachloride have been used to synthesize nanoparticles. Zinc acetate is synthesized into nanoparticle by wet chemical technique and titanium tetrachlo...

Objective(s):  Titanium oxides are known to be appropriate hemocompatible materials which are suggested as coatings for blood-contacting devices. Little is known about the influence of nanometric crystal structure, layer thickness, and semiconducting characteristics of TiO2 on blood hemostasis.   Materials and Methods: Having used sol-gel dip coating method in this study, TiO2 thin films were d...

the current epidemic of diabetes indicates the need of proper and effective medications that are limited in their potency to have many side effects. thus, introduction of alternative and complementary medicine is now in picture. the main objective of this study was to analyze the rate of glucose transport across cell membrane in yeast cells system in the presence of the ethanolic extract of bru...

halophilic and halotolerant microorganisms are good candidates for decolorization of azo dyeswhich are routinely used in the dyeing process in textile industries. in this paper, theoptimization of biological decolorization of synthetic dye solutions containing remazol black bby the previously isolated halophilic bacterium halomonas sp. d2 is investigated. in a primaryinvestigation using a one-f...

Titanium (Ti) and its alloys have been extensively used as implant materials in orthopedic applications. Nevertheless, implants may fail due to a lack of osseointegration and/or infection. The aim of this in vitro study was to endow an implant surface with favorable biological properties by the dual modification of surface chemistry and nanostructured topography. The application of a nanostruct...

This paper presents a study on the preparation method for Ag-TiO2 nano particles. Photodeposition of silver on TiO2 nanoparticles was carried out by adding a desired volume of aqueous AgNO3. Ag-deposited TiO2 catalyst was characterised by XRD, TEM, SEM. The Ag-TiO2 catalyst was evaluated for their photocatalytic activity towards the degradation of Malachite green (MG) under UV irradiation. An a...
