Cytotoxicity Measurements of CdSe and Ag Hybrid Nano Composites for In-vitro Bioimaging Applications

The antimicrobial properties of silver metal have long been known. The interaction of these metal nanoparticles with human cells suggests that they are harmless. We synthesised a hybrid nanocomposites of Ag with Cadmium Selenide (CdSe) Quantum Dots (QDs) for cytotoxicity testing in this study. These hybrid nanostructures can be exploited in medical detection and therapy…

Calcium Phosphate based Perforation Repair Materials using Human Gingival Fibroblasts: An in vitro Cytotoxicity Evaluation

New calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been discovered with promising physical properties for dental applications such as perforation repairs. However, there is a scarcity of data on the biological properties of these new materials, especially in long-term settings. We investigated the biological features of three distinct varieties of CPCs in a four-week in vitro cytotoxicity…

A Comprehensive Review on the Pleotropic Role of Nitric Oxide, a Well-Known Cytotoxin

Nitric oxide (NO), a free radical, has a dual role in human physiology and disease. NO is thought to protect cells at low concentrations; but, at greater concentrations, it becomes cytotoxic and contributes to tumour angiogenesis and cancer growth. Although previous research on the function of NO in cancer were tissue-specific, this review focuses on…

Synthesis, Antibacterial and Cytotoxicity Assessment of Modified Uridine Molecules

Nucleoside derivatives continue to play an important role in the treatment of various diseases; therefore, in light of the importance of nucleoside analogues, we synthesized a series of nucleoside molecules, namely, uridine derivatives. The direct acylation of uridine molecules with N-acetylsulfanilyl chloride produced the corresponding 5-O-N-acetylsulfanilyluridine with ribose sugar moiety. The 5 -O-N-acetylsulfanilyluridine derivative was…
