Comparative and synergistic studies of antibacterial effect of ZnO nanoparticles and antibiotics for Pathogens in Drinking Water

Butt N.M., Preston University, PK

In the area of water purification, nanotechnology offers the possibility of an efficient removal of pollutants and germs (Dhermendra K. Tiwari et al., 2008). Zinc oxide nanoparticles are known to be one of the multifunctional [...]

Preparation and investigation of nano- carbonated hydroxyapatite/polymer composite spongy scaffolds for biomedical applications

Siddiqi S.A., Manzoor F., Azhar U., Jamal A., Tariq M., Anwar M.S., Saleem M., Chaudhry A.A., Rehman I.U., COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, PK

Spongy scaffolds containing nano-Carbonated Hydroxyapatite (nCHA), with composition Ca10(PO4)6-y(CO3)y(OH)2,with y=2,4, were prepared by the lyophilization method. Different polymers, natural gelatin (G), chitosan (CS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), alone or in combination, were used to make [...]

MgO Nanoparticles for the Removal of Reactive dyes from Wastewater

Jamil N., Mehmood M., Lateef A., Nazir R., Ahsan N., University of the Punjab, PK

The quality of water reservoirs are under threat due to over exploitation and disposal of untreated wastewater. Throughout the world, diverse industrial operations and processes are contaminating all the spheres of environment. Amongst these, textile [...]

Antibacterial effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles against water borne bacteria

Rubab F., Chaudhary M.F., Butt N.M., Preston University, Islamabad Campus, PK

We have investigated antibacterial properties of zinc oxide nanoparticles against gram negative bacteria isolated from drinking water. We isolated and identified Escherichia coli, Serratia marcescens, Enterobacter cloacae and Aeromonas hydrophila. Our results showed zinc oxide [...]
