The propertiesof TiO_2 and TiO_2/SiO_2 were characterized by means of BET(Brunner-Emmett- Teller method), TEM (transmission electronmicroscopy), SEM (scanning electron microscopy), XRD (X-ray diffrac-tion) and FTIR (Fourier transform-infrared) techniques. The effectsof different preparation route, prehydrolysis and non-prehydrolysis,on the properties of TiO_2/SiO_2 oxide were also examined.展开更多

The effectiveness of hyaluronic acid-based compounds in accelerated healing and helping manage pain in patients with oral mucositis was demonstrated. It was investigated a protective and regenerative effect of hyaluronic acid based gel formulation enriched with NAG (N-acetyl glucosamine) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles against degenerative process of the oral mucosa. Gel formulations were obtained by adding sHA (sodium hyaluronate) into SLN aqueous suspension. Gel performances were evaluated by multi-methodological approach: mucoadhesive and barrier properties evaluation, cell viability. It was shown that gel formulation based sHA, enriched with NAG loaded SLNs, when added as suspension, demonstrated to have a good mucoadhesion profile comparable in terms of tensile work and fracture strength to Carbomer 934 2%. The presence of NAG encapsulated and not in gel formulation enhances also the biocompatibility of the system, demonstrating also to have a proliferative effect. Finally, any barrier property was altered. Finally, results demonstrated that sHA based gel formulation enriched SLNs, demonstrated good mucoadeshion property, comparable to carbopol gel, positive control. The proposed gel formulation enriched with SLNs setting up in this work could be used as innovation strategy to treat oral mucositis.展开更多

Control of the particle size, dispersion, purity and stability have been always regarded an issue. In this study magnetite (Fe304) superparamagnetic nanoparticles with a size range about 20 nm have been successfully synthesized using chemical co-precipitation method from the solution of ferrous/ferric mixed salt-solution in alkaline media in oxygen-free environment. The sol-gel method has been chose to encapsulate magnetic nanoparticles into silica matrix. The phase structures, morphologies, surface area, functional classes and magnetic properties have been characterized by X-ray diffraction, SEM and AFM, BET, FT-IR and VSM. The results showed that the resultant films, consisting of encapsulated magnetite have crack free and smooth surface with a roughness value 1.5 rim.展开更多

Analysis of the powder x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show tetragonal unit cell with lattice parameters a = 8.6545, 8.2520, 7.7645, 9.8952, 8.2863 A; b = 8.9800, 11.5788, 15.6305, 8.4766, 11.6465 A in B1-B5, respectively. The average crystallite sizes in the samples are found to be in the range 69.56-119.48 A. Energy dispersive analysis of x-rays (EDAX) result shows the presence of Fe, Nd, Cs and O, and Fe, Nd, Zn, Cs and O in B 1 (x=0) and B2(x=0.25)-B5(x= 1.0), respectively. The IR results at 300 K show the presence of octahedral [NdO6/2]^3- (asymmetric stretch: 410-416 cml) and [FeO6/2]^3-(symmetric stretch: 562-572 cm^-1) units in the samples. Observed magnetic moments versus magnetic field plots in the range -10 kG to +10 kG exhibit hysteresis loops with average magnetic susceptibility values in the range 3.46 × 10^-5 -7.05 × 10^-5 emu/gG in B1-B5 shows fairly strong ferromagnetic nature of the samples. The observed EPR lineshapes at 300 and 77 K with giso=2.01-2.03 and giso=2.01-2.03, respectively is ascribed to the octahedral [FeO6/2]^3- coordination of Fe^3+ (3d^5) ion. The optical absorption spectra show the transition of ^4I9/2→^4F7/2→^ 4S3/2 (750 nm) of optically active Nd^3+ ions in samples.展开更多

The characterization of ZnO NPs, such as particle size, morphology, crystal form, optical properties and p H-responsive behavior, was carried out. The in vitro anti-tumor activity of ZnO NPs was evaluated on PC-3M and 4T1 cell lines. The results indicated that ZnO NPs were spherical NPs with uniform particle size, excellent fluorescence properties, and p H-responsive behavior. The in vitro anti-tumor activity of ZnO NPs was observed on PC-3M and 4T1 cell lines. Considering to above characteristics, Zn O NPs could be used as drug delivery carries for loading active compound performing therapeutic and diagnostic effect.展开更多
