Objective(s): This study aimed to compare impacts of silver nanoparticles and silver cobalt nanoparticles on the hepatic function tests and changes in liver tissues in adult male rats.Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 49 adult male Wistar rats, each weighing approximately 180-220 gr. The rats were randomly assigned to seven groups of seven including one control group and six ex...

paper chromatography is an analytical technique for separating and identifying mixtures of materials. it is a useful technique since it is relatively quick, and requires small quantities of the material. by emergence of nanotechnology, paper chromatography has found many applications in biology and biotechnology. in this study, we employed gold and silver nanoparticles to detect protein bands a...

PLGA (poly d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulating magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) along with a model drug human serum albumin (HSA) were prepared by double emulsion solvent evaporation method. This Part I will focus on size and size distribution of prepared NPs, whereas encapsulation efficiency will be discussed in Part II. It was found that mean hydrodynamic particle siz...

Nanoparticles that are aimed at targeting cancer cells, but sparing healthy tissue provide an attractive platform of implementation for hyperthermia or as carriers of chemotherapeutics. According to the literature, diverse effects of nanoparticles relating to mammalian reproductive tissue are described. To address the impact of nanoparticles on cyto- and genotoxicity concerning the reproductive...

Foams of bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been utilized for synthesizing in situ protein capped Ag-Pt alloy nanoparticles. The in vitro cytotoxicity and the rate of proliferation of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) in presence of the above synthesized alloy nanoparticles is investigated. Expression profile of protein involved in detoxification, i.e. metallotheonein (MT) were assayed by ELISA an...
