Elemental Analysis of a Nickel-Titanium (Ni-Ti) Pediatric Rotary File Coated With Graphene Oxide: An Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis.

Background: Graphene oxide (GO) coatings have emerged as a promising method to enhance materials' surface properties and mechanical performance. In the context of endodontic files, the efficacy of these instruments is critically dependent on the properties of their outermost layer. Surface treatments and coatings can substantially improve these characteristics.

Nanobiocatalysis: Approach and Applications in Drug Development and Sensing.

Enzymes play a pivotal role in the human body, but their potential is not limited to just that. Scientists have successfully modified these enzymes as nanobiocatalysts or nanozymes for industrial or commercial use, either in the food, medicine, biotech or even textile industries. These nanobiocatalysts and nanozymes offer several advantages over enzymes, like better stability, improved shelf-life, increased percentage yield, and reuse potential, which is very difficult with normal enzymes.

Surface Coating of Nickel-Titanium (Ni-Ti) Pediatric Rotary File Using Graphene Oxide: A Scanning Electron Microscopy Analysis.

Background: The effectiveness of endodontic files relies significantly on the characteristics of the outermost layer, which can be greatly improved through suitable surface treatments and appropriate coatings. Graphene-based materials (GBMs) have been utilized to fabricate nanocomposite coatings aimed at improving surface characteristics and mechanical behavior, including resilience, sustainability, oxidation resistance, solidity, and traction.

Aim: This research aims to study the surface topography of a nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) pediatric rotary file coated with graphene oxide (GO) using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Controlled roll rotation of a microparticle in a hydro-thermophoretic trap.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in controlling the motion of microparticles inside and outside a focused laser beam. A hydro-thermophoretic trap was recently reported [Nalupurackal ., Soft Matter , 6825 (2022)], which can trap and manipulate microparticles and living cells outside a laser beam.

Influence of dietary supplementation with new strains on hematology, serum biochemistry, nutritional status, digestibility, enzyme activities, and immunity in dogs.

Background And Aim: The use of antibiotics is associated with many side effects, with the development of bacterial resistance being particularly important. It has been found that dogs and their owners host similar resistant bacteria. This contributes to increased concurrent bacterial resistance and a possible trend of increased bacterial resistance in humans.
