electrospinning was applied to nitrocellulose (nc) solutions  in dmf, dmso  and  ethyl  methyl  keton  to  obtain  nc  nanofibers. electrospraying  process  was  observed  when  dmf  was  used  as solvent.  in  comparison  to nc/dmf, nc/dmso  solution  resulted  in the  formation  of  a  coating  film  as  indicate  by  sem.  two  different electrospun  nanofibers,  smooth  nanofibers  with  90...

The European Commission should be regulating nanosilver, not asking for yet another report on its impact on health and the environment.

b ackgro un d : the antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles has been investigated in medical fields in recent years, but there are few studies regarding its effect on oral microorganisms. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial and toxicity properties of nanosilver against two dental plaque microorganisms  and human gingival fibroblast (hgf) cell line. me ...

INTRODUCTION Development of clinically acceptable orthodontic adhesives with additional anti-microbial and remineralizing features could be undertaken only if their mechanical properties have also been considered. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of incorporating Silver and Hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles on the shear bond strength (SBS) of an orthodontic adhesive. ME...

objective: nanotechnology focuses on materials having at least one dimension of less than 100 nanometers. nanomaterials such as nanosilver (ns) have unique physical and chemical properties such as size, shape, surface charge. ns particles are thought to induce neuronal degeneration and necrosis in the brain. it has been reported that ns particles generate free radicals and oxidative stress whic...

This research has the purpose to determine characteristics of synthesis 20 ppm nanogold using TEM, effect adding on antioxidant activity Moringa leaves, and best concentration that supports increasing in leaves. Nanogold nanosilver were synthesized bottom-up methods. The concentrations used for leaf extract 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 ppm. is Nanosilver at a had inhibition antibacterial activity. Tes...
