Nanotoxicology of dendrimers in the mammalian heart: Ex vivo and in vivo administration of g6 pamam nanoparticles impairs recovery of cardiac function following ischemia-reperfusion injury
(
Dove Medical Press Ltd.
, 2020 , Article)
Aim: The effects of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers on the mammalian heart are not completely understood. In this study, we have investigated the effects of a sixth-generation cationic dendrimer (G6 PAMAM) on cardiac ...
Selective H2S sensor based on CuO nanoparticles embedded in organic membranes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
We report on H2S gas sensors based on CuO nanoparticles that are embedded within polymer membranes of poly-vinyl-alcohol (PVA) and glycerol ionic liquid (IL). The nanoparticles were fabricated by the colloid microwave ...
The effect of aluminum oxide on red blood cell integrity and hemoglobin structure at nanoscale
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Herein, we explored the interaction of Al2O3 NPs with RBCs and Hb to determine the effect of Al2O3 NPs on hemolytic activity and Hb denaturation. The percentage of hemolysis of extracts and direct contact assays triggered ...
Characterization of H2S gas sensor based on CuFe2O4nanoparticles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel auto-combustion method and used to construct a conductometric gas sensor in this work. The as-prepared CuFe2O4 nanoparticles were annealed at 500 °C and ...
Properties enhancement of Ni-P electrodeposited coatings by the incorporation of nanoscale Y 2 O 3 particles
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
In this study the influence of nanoscale Y 2 O 3 particles on structural, morphological, mechanical and the elemental composition of Ni-P coatings have been investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), microhardness, ...
Heat transfer enhancement of nanofluids using iron nanoparticles decorated carbon nanotubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Enhancing heat transfer in thermal fluid systems can contribute significantly towards the improvement of thermal efficiency resulting in reducing energy consumption and hence carbon emission. Conventional fluids like water ...
Propylene oxide assisted sol-gel synthesis of zinc ferrite nanoparticles for solar fuel production
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This paper reports the synthesis of phase-pure Zn-ferrite nanoparticles with high specific surface area (SSA) via the propylene oxide (PO) assisted sol–gel method. For the synthesis of Zn-ferrite, metal precursors (ZnCl2 ...
Synthesis and characterisation of Co2+-incorporated ZnO nanoparticles prepared through a sol-gel method
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
The properties of ZnO nanoparticles were modified by doping them with cobalt ions (Co2+) in various compositions through a sol-gel route. The Co2+-doped ZnO nanoparticles were characterised using X-ray diffraction (XRD), ...
Sol-gel synthesized NixFe3−xO4 for thermochemical conversion of CO2
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
To identify the best suitable metal oxide (MO) to split H2O/CO2, it is critical to investigate the formation of O2 vacancies during thermal reduction (TR) step and the re-oxidation of the MOs via H2O or CO2 splitting (CS) ...
