Cyanobacteria isolates from muthupet mangrove includes Aphanothece sp, Oscillatoria sp, Microcoleus sp, Aphanocapsa sp, Phormidium sp, Lyngbya sp, Gleocapsa sp, Synechococcus sp, Spirulina sp with were set in compliance with their cellular mechanism of nano silver creation, and were investigated by UV-VIS spectrophotometer, Energy-dis...

in this study, the effect of nano-silver (ag) treatment on the drying rate and final moisture gradient of poplar wood was investigated. poplar (populous nigra) boards with green dimensions of 100×70×50 and 20 mm were treated with nano-silver (ag) suspension by spraying and immersion method. two concentrations of nano-silver suspension, including 20 and 100 ppm were used. then, the boards were c...

BACKGROUND Staphylococcus aureus biofilms contribute significantly to the recalcitrant nature of chronic rhinosinusitis. In previous studies, it has been shown that silk fibroin-nano silver solution can eliminate S. aureus biofilms in vitro, which suggests a potential role of this novel agent in the treatment of biofilm-associated diseases, such as sinusitis. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study w...

The functionality of flexible metal electrodes relies on the stable performance of a metallic film. In this study, highly stretchable anisotropic structures are designed to investigate the behaviour of silver electrodes on polydimethylsiloxane. Treated using both the oxygen plasma and the surface chemical functionalization technology, the film resistivity was reduced to 5.856 × 10(-9) Ω m after...

a green low-cost and reproducible yeast mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles is reported. the synthesis is performed at room temperature. x-ray and transmission electron microscopy analyses are performed to ascertain the formation of ag nanoparticles. nanoparticles almost spherical in shape having a size of 6-20 nm are found.

this study was conducted to evaluate the long-term effects of in ovo injection of nano-silver, thyme and savory extracts in broiler breeder eggs on growth performance, lymphoid organ weights, immune and blood parameters and bone mineral concentration of broiler chicks. a total of 560 fertilized broiler breeder eggs were divided into 7 groups. on d 5 of incubation, eggs were treated with the fol...

agal2o3 nanocomposite were synthesized by solution combustion technique using ammonium carbonate as a new fuel under simultaneous combustion of alumina and silver particles condition. samples prepared with different amount of silver, were characterized by xrd, bet, sem and optical absorption measurements. xrd analysis was used to determine the change in phase and size of the synthesized nanopar...

statement of the problem addition of metallic nano-particles to composite resins can change their water contact angle purpose the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of addition of nano-particles of silver and zinc oxide to composite resins on their water contact angle materials and methods this in vitro study was performed on 60 composite resin samples. nano-silver and nano-zinc oxide...
