Although ZnSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as apparently less hazardous substitute to cadmium-based QDs, their toxicity has not been fully understood. Huge levels of ROS production and associated difficulties comprise the underlying reason for nanomaterial in cells. This will cause both immunotoxicity genotoxicity. In current work, Zinc Selenium/Zinc Sulphide (ZnSe/ZnS) QDs was synthesiz...

* Correspondence: [email protected] 1. Brief historical notes and discovery of cadmium Friedrich Stromeyer and Karl Hermann discovered cadmium (Cd) almost simultaneously in 1817 in samples of zinc oxide obtained by roasting zinc carbonate from Salzgitter (Germany). Cd has no amphoteric properties and, although cadmiate anions are found, it does not dissolve in bases (Borsari, 2011). Cd is a ...

Halitosis occurs in approximately 30% of the adult population and has a negative social and psychological impact on affected individuals. Mouthwashes may be used to prevent unpleasant odour, with long-duration of effect being a desirable attribute. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term efficacy of CB12 (a mixture of 0.3% zinc acetate and 0.025% chlorhexidine) for the treatment of in...

Purpose. In order to fully exploit the metal and facilitate its method of processing, we need an accurate knowledge composition, granular distribution, association with unimportant penalizing elements that would like get rid of, compared distribution element extract by flotation method. Methodology. The present experimental work proposes approach mineralogical, chemical particle size characteri...

Different samples of ZnS nanoparticals were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method at room temperature using zincsulphate as zinc source and sodium sulphide as sulphur source. Structural properties of synthesized ZnS nanoparticles were studied by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) while optical properties were examined by UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy. XRD pattern showed the as synth...

Tissue removed from nine new cases from 18 hours to 20 weeks after injury by a golf ball contained crystalline and other foreign material to which there was a mild inflammatory reaction followed by macrophagic activity and fibrosis. Optical and electron probe analysis showed that the crystalline material was crushed barytes containing small quantities of muscovite as is typical in natural depos...

The most significant process for optical coating is variant of vacuum deposition. Zinc sulphide having direct and large band gap which is use in opto electronics. By using ZnS material in thermal evaporation technique and characterizing the minimum reflectance and maximum transmittance in visible wavelength and energy gap increases with increasing thickness having direct and large band gap.
