Chemical precipitation method was used in order to synthesize CdSe:Ag quantum dots (2-3 nm). Their Physical properties and characteristics were assessed by X-ray diffraction, ultra violet-visible spectrophotometer and TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) and it was shown that the obtained CdSe:Ag quantum dots are cubic with high-quality. Antibacterial effects of CdSe:Ag nanoparticles against ...

The corrosion mitigation effect of aminophen (an organic fluid derivative) on 1070 aluminum alloy was studied in 1 M HCl solution by potentiodynamic polarization and weight loss analysis. Data obtained showed performed poorly at low concentrations (2.5%, 5% 7.5%) with optimal value 49.9% 30% (potentiodynamic analysis) 7.5% concentration. At 10% concentration, significant improvement inhibition ...

objective: dental caries is a common infectious disease. streptococcus mutans is the prevalent decay microorganism. the anti streptococcus mutans activity of non fermented and semi-fermented tea has been shown. the aim of this study was to determine the anti streptococcus mutans activity of iranian green and black tea (non fermented and fermented type). materials and methods: the study was expe...

the antibacterial activity of a series of ionic liquids containing short-chained 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium cations ([cnmim+]; n = 2, 4, 6 and 8) and bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide anion ([tf2n]) against e. coli and b. subtilis was measured, for the first time. all ils used in this work were synthesized and analyzed by fourier transform infrared (ft-ir) spectroscopy, nmr, and karl-fischer...

conclusions our experimental and in silico findings may provide new insight in the complex molecular pathways of drug resistance and also could assist design an efficient therapeutic strategy for aspergillosis treatment. results four out of five isolates revealed cyp51a and mdr1 mrna overexpression. interestingly, the isolate, which was negative for cyp51a and mdr1 mrna expression showed a high...

background and purpose: candidiasis, an important fungal infection, is considered the fourth most common nosocomial blood stream infection. nowadays, because of increased fungal resistance to antibiotics, the use of herbal medicine has gained particular attention. cyclamen species are medicinal plants containing triterpenoid saponins, which are shown to have antimicrobial properties. materials ...

recently, the effects of antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles was considered by researcher because of bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents in chemical.the aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the gold nanoparticles on escherichia coli. gold nanoparticles are chemically synthesized. standard strain of e. coli was cultured in a nutrient broth. minimum ...

introduction: in this study, the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of essential oil of ziziphora clinopodiodes and its potential application as a natural preservative in reducing the indigenous microbial population of hamburger were investigated. method: essential oil of ziziphora clinopodiodes cultivated in iran was obtained by hydro-distillation method (hdm). chemical compositio...
