Polyurethane nanofibers containing calcium chloride (CaCl2) were prepared via an electrospinning technique for the biomedical applications. Polyurethane nanofibers with different concentration of CaCl2 were electrospun, and their bioactivity evaluation was conducted by incubating in biomimetic simulated body fluid (SBF) solution. The morphology, structure and thermal properties of the polyureth...

Electron microscopy (EM) is a useful tool for detailed ultrastructural analysis of microorganisms. Both scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which provide information about surface and intracellular changes, can be used for studying the effects of antimicrobial agents on microorganisms. EM has previously been used to study the ultrastructural basis of t...

in this paper, undopedzno and co-znonano structureswith different molar ratio of cobalt have been synthesized by the sonochemical method. structure have been characterized by fourier transform (ftir) and uv–vis spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy (sem), energy dispersive analytical x-ray (edax), and x-ray diffraction (xrd) methods. moreover, the direct band gap has been calculated by tauc...

iron oxide (fe2o3) nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple approach using sodium borohydride (nabh4) and iron chloride hexahydrate (fecl3.6h2o). their physicochemical properties were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), x-ray diffraction (xrd) and electron dispersive spectroscopy (eds). xrd pattern showed that the iron...

Backscattered electron Kikuchi patterns (BEKP) suitable for crystallographic phase analysis can be collected in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) with a newly developed charge coupled device (CCD) based detector. Crystallographic phase identification using BEKP in the SEM is unique in that it permits high magnification images and BEKPs to be collected from a bulk specimen. The combination ...

in this paper, preparation, bioactivity, and osteoblast cell behavior of cortical bone derived nanobiphasic calcium phosphate (nano-bcp) are presented. the calcined bovine bone samples with the addition of di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate were heated at 700°c for 100 min, and thus nano-bcp with the composition of 63/37 hydroxyapatite (ha)/β-tricalcium phosphate (β-tcp) was produced. scanning elec...

In this paper, heterojunction nanowires of Ni-Se are fabricated via template-assisted electrodeposition process. Nanowires are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffractometry and electrical transport studies. SEM photographs reveal the uniform and dense growth of Ni-Se nanowires. X-ray diffraction pattern shows the crystallin...

in this paper, nano fibers (engelhard corporation titanosilicate number 10 / polyacrylonitrile) ets-10 / pan, as a composite exchanger to absorb heavy metals, were synthesized and optimized. several parameters were affected on this absorption. results show that the optimization sizes of the nano fibers are about 75 nanometers. structures were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (sem) and e...
