The antibacterial activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) against gram-positive and -negative bacteria has been extensively studied but the mechanism of this effect has not been revealed. The aim of this study was investigate mechanism...

There is a gap of knowledge for the fate, effects and bioavailability of coated and uncoated ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) in soil. Moreover, little is known about the effects of soil properties on effects of NPs on plants. In ...

such as oxygen, reactive oxygen species are produced. This medical procedure is called photodynamic therapy. So far, the effect of zinc oxide nanofluid and UVA radiation in combination with doxorubicin on DU145 cells is not studied. In this study, the influence...

For the first time, zinc oxide nanoparticles have been synthesized by the sonochemical method in an ionic

liquid, 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide, liquid [hmim][NTf2] as a solvent.

The morphology...

Room temperature ionic liquids, RTILs are organic salts with low melting points. RTILs have aroused increasing interest worldwide due to their high fluidity, low melting temperature, extended temperature range in the liquid ...

The aim of this study was the synthesis of a platform with an optimum physicochemical property and photocatalytic activity for delivery of a standard chemotherapy drug, doxorubicin (Dox). The mesoporous rod-shaped zinc oxide/hydroxyapatite (Zn...
