Influence of ZnO doped into hydroxyapatite: Structural, electrical, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial assessment

An environment friendly multifunctional ZnO/wood fiber composite for the treatment of wastewater mixed with emulsions and dye

“…A small amount of lyophilized powder of different bacteria was dissolved in a liquid medium and incubated at 37 °C for 24 h to revive the bacteria. 29 Antibacterial ring: the pressed pieces of ZnO/WF and wood fibers were placed on the surface of the mixed bacteria and culture solution in a Petri dish, respectively, at a constant temperature of 37 °C for 24 h, and then the diameter of the antibacterial ring was observed and measured. All the measurement experiments were repeated three times.…”

Zn-containing Wollastonite with Well-defined Microstructural and Good Antifungal Activity

“…The attained zeta potential values were − 2.64, -9.38, -17.6 and − 17.6mV. As a result, it may be decided that the admission of the ZnO has initiated a decline in the zeta potential value [10]. The value of area % was 100% for CS0, CZS1 and CZS3; whereas for the sample with the higher percentage of zinc oxide (i.e., CZS5) it displayed two peaks of 96.6% for the rst peak and 3.4% for the second peak.…”

“…Zinc ions certainly disturbs the antibacterial activity and cellular reaction, thus providing an attractive bone ller alternate [8,9]. By means of raising the concentrations of zinc, antibacterial action extended in the inhibition zones as mentioned by El-Bassyouni et al, upon investigating the doping of the hydroxyapatite (HA) with diverse percentages of Zn [10] . Wang et al, (2011) [11], decided that an exact amount of ZnO has no poisonous side effects on the human body and can correspondingly improve the cell proliferation.…”

Some optical and microstructure characteristics of effective cost ZnO-containing hydroxyapatite

“…Therefore, in order to organize porous HA composite, zinc was used as a pore forming agent material [12]. In 2022 it was judged that the association of ZnO into the HA structure had increased the biocompatibility, antimicrobial and antifungal effects [13]. Earlier in 2013 the results of Mohamed et al verified an increment in the mechanical properties and bioactivity of the HA with increasing of the ZnO content [14].…”
