objectives: this study aimed to assess the effect of storage time and temperature on dimensional stability of impressions made with cavex outline zinc oxide impression paste. materials and methods: a round stainless steel mold with five grooves (three horizontal and two vertical) was used in this in-vitro experimental study. cavex outline impression paste was prepared according to the manufactu...

Graphene oxide-zinc oxide hybrid nanostructures were synthesized and they demonstrated significant and promising antimicrobial activity on pathogenic bacteria. The combination of graphene oxide with zinc oxide nanorods showed an impressive antibacterial effect under intense scrutiny as compared with individual graphene oxide or zinc oxide nanomaterials. The characterization and investigation of...

introduction: the aim of this animal study was to evaluate the histological response of the new nano zinc-oxide eugenol (nzoe) sealer in comparison with pulp canal sealer (zoe based) and ah-26 (epoxy resin sealer). methods and materials: a total of 27 wistar rats were used. four polyethylene tubes were implanted in the back of each rat (three tubes containing the test materials and an empty tub...

Zinc oxide nanosheet is assessed as a selective adsorbent for the detection and adsorption of cadmium using simple eco-friendly extraction method. Pure zinc oxide nanosheet powders were characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The zinc oxide n...

in this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles (znonps) were synthesized by chemical method and their antibacterial efficiency against a clinical isolate of staphylococcus aureus was studied. the zinc oxide nanoparticles have shown a commendable inhibition effect on the growth of most notorious bacterial pathogen s.aureus. the nanoparticles size and shapes were characterized by transmission electron m...

We investigated the effect of locally applied zinc on the healing of partial-thickness skin wounds in the domestic pig using two zinc compounds (zinc oxide and zinc sulfate) in two different vehicles (a gauze compress and a collagen sponge). The rate of re-epithelialization was determined morphometrically 48 and 64 hr after infliction of standardized square wounds (4.8 cm2 and 400-microns deep)...

In this research, the inhibitory effects of silver nanoparticles and zinc oxide nanoparticles,  in vitro, on disease stone fruits bacterial canker caused by Pseudomonas syrigae pv. Syringae and disease bacterial blight caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis, were studied. Different concentrations of nanoparticles were prepared on Mueller Hinton agar medium in two different ways in a com...

This study is focused on the evaluation of zinc oxide properties and behavior at commercially available cosmetic ingredients by in vitro methods of dermal absorption of zinc oxide and its subsequent chemical determinations. Two methods for determination of ZnO were used and the results were compared. The spectrophotometric method (SPM) was selected for its sensitivity and atomic absorption spec...
