In recent years, the availability and use of various antibiotics and antimicrobial agents have resulted in increase of drug resistant pathogens. Therefore, scientist’s attention has been diverted to find a suitable replacement for antimicrobial treatment. Graphene (G), as a two-dimensional (2D) carbon-based nanomaterials (CBNs) has a unique physicochemical properties including thermal, optical ...

BACKGROUND Chlorhexidine gluconate is a widely used antimicrobial agent. Adding chlorhexidine and quaternary ammonium compounds to filling materials, such as composite resins, acrylic resins, and glass ionomer cements increases the antibacterial property of restorative materials. This study includes antibacterial property of glass ionomer restorative cements with chlorhexidine gluconate. AIM ...

Background: Citrus fruits have some antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The aim of this study was to determine the chemical compounds, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities of Essential Oil (EO) of lemon (Citrus limon) peel in vitro and in a food model. Methods: The analysis of the lemon peel EO was carried out using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Total phenolic and flavonoid ...

antimicrobial activity of the roots of eranthemum roseum (vahl) r.br. (dasmuli), were tested against different bacteria (including escherichia coli, staphylococcus aureus, bacillus subtilis, shigella sonnei, klebsiella pneumoniae, salmonella typhi, proteus vulgaris, pseudomonas aeruginosa) and fungi (such as candida albicans and aspergillus niger) by cup plate diffusion method. minimal inhibito...

microorganisms play a major role in initiation and perpetuation of pulpal and periapical diseases. therefore, elimination of the microorganisms present in the root canal system is the fundamental objective of endodontic treatment. the use of mechanical debridement, chemical irrigation or other antimicrobial protocols and intra-canal medicaments are critical to attain this goal. the aim of this ...
