Investigation and optimization of In-Vitro behaviour of Perovskite barium titanate as a scaffold and protective coatings.

The piezoelectric effect is widely known to have a significant physiological function in bone development, remodeling, and fracture repair. As a well-known piezoelectric material, barium titanate is particularly appealing as a scaffold layer to improve bone tissue engineering applications. Currently, the chemical bath deposition method is used to prepare green synthesized barium titanate coatings to improve mechanical and biological characteristics.

Gold Nanoparticles: An Efficient Antimicrobial Agent against Enteric Bacterial Human Pathogen.

Enteric bacterial human pathogens, , Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis and Klebsiella pneumoniae, are the major cause of diarrheal infections in children and adults. Their structure badly affects the human immune system. It is important to explore new antibacterial agents instead of antibiotics for treatment.

Tungstate/titanate composite nanorod as an efficient visible light photo catalyst.

The fabrication of tungstate/titanate composite nanorods is studied with the effect of calcination temperatures. The composites contain agglomerates in as prepared form which transformed to nanorods at higher calcination temperature. As prepared agglomerates begin to transform into nanorods morphology at 600 °C and acquires the nanorods morphology completely at 800 °C.

WO3/BiOCl, a novel heterojunction as visible light photocatalyst.

A bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) nanostructure is prepared by a new low temperature route using sodium dodecyl sulfate as template and urea as hydrolytic agent. A novel heterojunction is developed between BiOCl and tungsten oxide (WO(3)) to make it an efficient visible light photocatalyst. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and N(2) sorption isotherms.

Comparative studies of operational parameters of degradation of azo dyes in visible light by highly efficient WOx/TiO2 photocatalyst.

The multidimensional aspects of the photocatalytic activity were investigated in a systematic way by employing the dyes Acid Orange 7 (AO7) and Methyl Orange (MO) as substrates in terms of their degradation or conversion rates. 4.0% WO(x)/TiO(2) nanocomposite demonstrated the best reactivity under visible light, allowing more efficient usage of solar light.
