Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen peroxide as an antibacterial factor in zinc oxide powder slurry
Jun Sawai,Shinobu Shoji,Hideo Igarashi,Atsushi Hashimoto,Takao Kokugan,Masaru Shimizu,Hiromitsu Kojima +6 more
TL;DR: Using four kinds of antibiotics, an investigation was made to determine whether or not H2O2 generated from a ZnO powder slurry was related to its antibacterial activity as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Active Oxygen Generated from Ceramic Powders Having Antibacterial Activity
Jun Sawai,Emiko Kawada,Fumio Kanou,Hideo Igarashi,Atsushi Hashimoto,Takao Kokugan,Masaru Shimizu +6 more
TL;DR: In order to elucidate the antibacterial mechanisms of magnesium oxide (MgO), calcium oxide (CaO), and zinc oxide (ZnO), the generation of active oxygen from these ceramic powder slurries was examined by oxygen electrode analysis and chemiluminescence analysis as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Growth Inhibitory Effect of Ceramics Powder Slurry on Bacteria by Conductance Method
TL;DR: The growth inhibitory effect of 26 ceramic powder slurries on bacteria was evaluated by measurement of the conductance change of the growth medium caused by bacterial metabolism (conductance method).
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of polylactic acid by direct polycondensation under vacuum without catalysts, solvents and initiators
TL;DR: In this paper, an uncatalyzed direct polycondensation (DP) method was used to reduce the production cost of polylactic acid (PLA) under vacuum without catalysts, solvents and initiators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Particle-Size and Heating Temperature of Ceramic Powders on Antibacterial Activity of Their Slurries
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of particlesize and heating temperature of magnesium oxide, calcium oxide, and zinc oxide (ZnO) powders on the antibacterial activities of their slurries were studied by the conductance method.
