This study examined the influence of variables in a finishing process for making cotton fabric with regenerable antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). 5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DMH) was coated onto cotton fabric by a pad-dry-plasma-cure method. Sodium hypochlorite was used for chlorinating the DMH coated fabric in order to introduce antibacterial properties. An orthogo...

introduction: vaginitis is an inflammatory and infectious disease in human host that involved vaginal mucosa. increase of resistance to various antibacterial agent has been very significant in three or four recent decades and this important subject reveals the use of new and natural sources such as plants with medical and antimicrobial property for eradication of these infections. therefore, th...

Implant-associated infections still pose a serious threat leading to several complications. This study reported an environmentally benign Ag-containing nanocomposite coating with efficient antibacterial property fabricated on the metal implant via electrophoretic deposition (EPD). In such coatings, Ag2O/AgCl mixed with chitosan/gelatin (CS/G) polymers work together to exert the antibacterial pr...

BACKGROUND Titania dioxide (TiO(2)) photocatalyst is primarily induced by ultraviolet light irradiation. Visible-light responsive anion-doped TiO(2) photocatalysts contain higher quantum efficiency under sunlight and can be used safely in indoor settings without exposing to biohazardous ultraviolet light. The antibacterial efficiency, however, remains to be further improved. METHODOLOGY/PRINC...

The rationale behind this project work was to prepare neomycin sulphate loaded chitosan nanofibers via electrospinning methods so as to enhance wound healing property. Natural polymers are used as main compounds for design of therapeutic drug delivery systems for treatment of different ailments. Chitosan and Neomycin sulphate have proven wound healing properties individually. The combination of...

Diclofenac 2(2,6 dichloranilino) phenylacetic acid is a widely prescribed non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug. It is used to reduce pain and treat inflammation in some disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondilytis, gout, dysmenorrhea, spondylarthritis etc., It acts by inhibiting the action of cycloxygenase enzymes COX-1 and COX-2 which are responsible for the synt...
