MCM-41 and Zn-MCM-41 were successfully synthesized using hydrothermal impregnation methods. The silica mesoporous was confirmed by characterizing the material XRD, SEM-EDS, BET-BJH analyses. XRD results showed three main peaks at angles of 2θ = 2.40° (100), 3.87° (200), 4.49° (210), which are characteristics materials with hexagonal structures. SEM analysis that surface morphology Zn-modified f...

Tetracycline (TC) is a well-known broad spectrum antibiotic, which is effective against many Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. Controlled release nanoparticle formulations of TC have been reported, and could be beneficial for application in the treatment of periodontitis and dental bone infections. Furthermore, TC-controlled transcriptional regulation systems (Tet-on and Tet-off) are us...

Recently, hybrid materials using poly ethylene glycol and porous nanocrystals have been developed for drug release. In this study, a series of poly ethylene glycol (PEG)/NaY zeolite and PEG/MCM-41 nanocomposites get synthesized. These materials are characterized using FT-IR spectroscopy, XRD, TGA and SEM. After loading the metronidazole onto these nanocomposites, the release of Metronidazole wa...

In this research, the fabrication of MCM-41 mesoporous material nanofibers by an electrospinning technique was performed. The MCM-41 nanofibers (MCM-41 NFs) as a novel host on the incorporation of silver has been studied in [Ag(NH3)2]NO3 precursor solution through the heat-treatment process. The formation of silve...

A new method has been used to obtain pore size characteristics of MCM-41 catalyst supports and vanadiumsubstituted MCM-41 catalysts. The approach is based on the nonlocal density functional theory (NLDFT) model for nitrogen and argon adsorption in MCM-41, proposed recently. Samples with pore sizes varying from ca. 25 to 37 Å were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. Two synthesis procedures empl...

cu(ii) complex with l-histidine (his) ligand, immobilized within al-mcm-41, designated as cu(his)2/al-mcm-41 was prepared and characterized by powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), nitrogen adsorption desorption, ftir, uv-vis and chemical analysis techniques. the surface area and pore volume were found to decrease after immobilization of cu(ii) complex on al-mcm-41. it was found that cu(his)2/al-mcm-...

We studied the effect of two types of mesoporous silica nanoparticles, MCM-41 and SBA-15, on mitochondrial O 2 consumption (respiration) in HL-60 (myeloid) cells, Jurkat (lymphoid) cells, and isolated mitochondria. SBA-15 inhibited cellular respiration at 25-500 microg/mL; the inhibition was concentration-dependent and time-dependent. The cellular ATP profile paralleled that of respiration. MCM...

In this study, MCM-41 mesoporous silica nanoparticles (NPs) and MCM-41÷Fe3O4 mesoporous silica NPs were prepared by sol-gel method using CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) as template and TEOS (tetraethyl orthosilicate) as silica precursor in order to use these materials as drug delivery system (DDS) for different biologically active agents. The MCM-41 and MCM-41÷Fe3O4 mesoporous silica NPs ...
