conclusions based on the present study, it can be concluded that oral administration of silver nanoparticles for 28 days had no effect on rat liver function, but probably led to early apoptotic stages. materials and methods in this experimental study, 40 adult male sprague-dawley rats were divided into five groups. in the four experimental groups, nanosilver particles were given orally for 28 c...

In this work we describe the preparation of NanoSilver/methylcellulose hydrogel containing silver nanoparticles (NPs) for topical bactericidal applications. Highly concentrated dispersion of silver NPs as high as of 5g/L of silver with diameter of 10nm was prepared by reduction of AgNO3 via strong reducing agent NaBH4. Silver NPs were stabilized by addition of sodium polyacrylate in order to pr...

Silver has long been known to have antimicrobial properties and were used until chemical antibiotics came into vogue. Metallic silver and most inorganic silver compounds ionize in moisture, body fluids and secretions to release biologically active Ag+, which the silver ions have been used for the characteristics of toxicology and pharmacology as antimicrobial agent.1 Nanosilver particles have b...

INTRODUCTION Biocompatibility and antimicrobial activity of endodontic materials are of utmost importance. Considering the extensive applications of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) in dentistry and antimicrobial properties of silver nanoparticles, this study aimed to evaluate the subcutaneous inflammatory reaction of rat connective tissues to white MTA with and without nanosilver (NS) particle...

objective: antibacterial properties of silver nanoparticles have recently come into the spotlight in endodontic therapy. this study was conducted aiming at comparing the antimicrobial activity of a new irrigation solution containing nanosilver particles with that of sodium hypochlorite and chlorhexidine against escherichia coli, enterococcus faecalis, pseudomonas aeruginosa and candida albicans...

nanosilver of nanometer-sized silver (ag+) particles (2-5 nm diam) are used in various applications as an anti-microbial. boric acid (h3bo3) is water soluble (ph=7). boric acid is ethylene synthese inhibitor and reduce ethylene production through reducing the acc synthase and acc oxidase delays senescence of flower. in this study of different concentrations of boric acid and nano-silver was eva...

The addition of an antibacterial agent to dental implants may provide the opportunity to decrease the percentage of implant failures due to peri-implantitis. For this purpose, in this study, the potential efficacy of nanosilver-doped titanium biomaterials was determined. Titanium disks were incorporated with silver nanoparticles over different time periods by Tollens reaction, which is consider...

abstract in order to study of magnetic field and nanosilver effects on fodder maize in comparison to micronutrients fertilizers, an experiment was conducted at research farm of razavi research and technology institute in the year 2007. this experiment was done with 7 treatments based on randomized complete block design with four replications. treatments were including (t1) magnetic field and si...
