Synthesis and antibacterial activity of silver doped zinc sulfide/chitosan bionanocomposites: A new frontier in biomedical applications.

Numerous microbial species have caused infectious diseases worldwide, which have become a social burden and a menace to the community. So, there is a need to develop antimicrobial materials and specialized materials for biomedical applications. In the present investigation, we report the simple synthesis, the physicochemical, and antibacterial activity of Silver doped zinc sulfide (ZnS: Ag) capped with Chitosan (CS) to produce ZnS: Ag/CS bionanocomposites (BNCs).

Surface Topography Analysis of Mg-Based Composites with Different Nanoparticle Contents Disintegrated Using Abrasive Water Jet.

This study investigated the effect of abrasive water jet kinematic parameters, such as jet traverse speed and water pressure, on the surface of magnesium-based metal matrix nanocomposites (Mg-MMNCs) reinforced with 50 nm (average particle size) AlO particles at concentrations of 0.66 and 1.11 wt.
