the combination of graphene (gr) and nickel oxide nanoparticles (nio nps) yields nanostructured electrochemical sensor formed a novel kind of structurally uniform and electrocatalytic activity material. in cyclic voltammetry (cv) studies, in the presence of ep, nio/gr composite modified electrode shows a significantly higher current response for ep oxidation. based on differential pulse voltamm...

introduction: since it is not possible to form an adequate micromechanical bond between resin cement and zirconia ceramics using common surface treatment techniques, laser pretreatment has been suggested for zirconia ceramic surfaces. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of carbon dioxide (co 2 ) laser treatment on shear bond strength (sbs) of resin cement to zirconia ceramic. metho...

a facile and simple method was proposed to control the size and shape of the mgo nano structures with high surface area in the presence of efficient and cheap templates like peg 200, peg 600, peg 4000 and sorbitol at low temperature within a little time. nano rods and nanoparticles have been achieved by applying these templates and altering other growth parameters. the products were characteriz...

introduction: pulpectomy is a conservative treatment plan for primary necrotic teeth and zinc oxide eugenol is still a good choice as root canal filling material but long term studies on poor prognosis molars are limited and almost contradictory. the purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographical success rate of pulpectomy of necrotic primary molars using zoe as the root c...

in the past decade, magnetic nanomaterials have attracted much attention due to their physical properties and technological applications. in this work, α-fe2o3 nanoparticles were first synthesized via a simple co-precipitation method using iron chloride hexahydrate (fecl3.6h2o) as precursor and ammonia solution as precipitator. the samples were then characterized by high resolution transmission...

in this study the synthesis of molybdenum oxide nano-whiskers with circular cross-section is performed. in some areas, it was observed that also some whiskers have open tips exhibiting their hollow structures. these whiskers have side dimensions ranging 2-5 μm with an average diameter in the nanometer rang. the structure suggested the vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism (vls). scanning elect...

semiconductor nanoparticles exhibit size dependent properties due to quantum confinement effect that arenot present in their bulk counterparts. in this work, extremely fine and pure sno2 nanoparticles of ~1.1nm size were synthesized by a solution process, in which amorphous precipitate of sno2 was crystallizedby microwave heating. the particles sizes varied from ~1.1 to ~2.7 nm. by xrd analysis...

objective(s):the mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) have been introduced as appropriate cells for tissue engineering and medical applications. some studies have shown that topography of materials especially physical surface characteristics and particles size could enhance adhesion and proliferation of osteoblasts. in the present research, we studied the distinction effect of 30 and 60 μg/ml of zinc ...

nanotechnology researchers have identified a wide range of nanoparticle applications that may have an important role in medicine and treatment of diseases. due to lack of detailed documentation about the toxicology of zinc oxide (zno) nanoparticles, this study was aimed to evaluate the absorption of zno nanoparticles in hearts of female nmri mice. overall, 20 adult nmri female mice were studied...

diagnosis of subclinical and early stage clinical periodontal dysfunction could prevent from further socioeconomic burden. the aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic applicability of nitric oxide and its end-metabolites in periodontal tissue health and disease. forty-two patients were enrolled and divided into three groups according to gingivitis (gi) and clinical attachment level (cal)...
