Ultrafiltration membranes in the fields of water treatment and biomedicine should have high permeability as well as antibacterial and antifouling capabilities. In this study, based on the hydrophilicity of fullerol (C(OH)) and the bacteriostatic properties of silver (Ag), a fullerol-silver (C(OH)-Ag) complex was prepared as a multifunctional additive. A polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-composited C(OH)-Ag ultrafiltration membrane (C(OH)-Ag/PVDF) was prepared by immersion precipitation phase transformation.

Article Synopsis
- A eucalyptus essential oil-based nanoemulsion was created and tested for its antimicrobial effectiveness and toxicity on rabbit surface mucous cells.
- The nanoemulsion had a small average particle size of about 100 nm and maintained good cell viability, indicating it was relatively safe.
- It showed strong antimicrobial properties in both the nanoemulsion itself and in mouthwash formulations containing the nanoemulsion, suggesting potential applications in preventive dentistry for oral health.

Introduction: The imbalance between remineralization and demineralization leads to the formation of secondary caries. Fluoride-releasing ability has been the characteristic property of glass ionomer cement (GIC), but it is uncertain if this property alone will be sufficient for the cessation of the growth of the organisms. Therefore, a restorative material with additional bacteriostatic properties needs to be introduced.

The common polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane itself is susceptible to membrane fouling, especially biofouling, which is a serious threat. In this study, PVDF membrane was modified with ciprofloxacin (CIP) through co-blending to investigate the filtration properties, bacterial inhibition and fouling resistance. Modified membranes were prepared by adding 0.

Dental caries, a chronic infectious disease characterized by tooth mineral loss caused by plaque, is one of the major global public health problems. Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) has been proven to be a highly effective anti-caries drug due to its high bacterial inhibition and remineralization ability. However, the SDF solution is unstable, which immensely limits its clinical application.
