Amorphous Ca-phosphate (ACP) particles stabilized by inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) were prepared by co-precipitation of calcium and phosphate in the presence of polyP (15% [w/w]). These hybrid nanoparticles showed no signs of crystallinity according to X-ray diffraction analysis, in contrast to the particles obtained at a lower (5% [w/w]) polyP c...

Inorganic polyphosphates (polyPs) are linear polymers of orthophosphate units linked by phosphoanhydride bonds. Polyphosphates represent important stores of phosphate and energy, and are abundant in many pro- and eukaryotic organisms. In plants, the existence of polyPs has been established using microscopy and biochemical extraction methods that ar...

BACKGROUND: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammation resulting in destruction of tooth-supporting bone. Chronic inflammation is characterized by extravascular fibrin deposition. Fibrin is central to destruction of bone; monocytes bind to fibrin and form osteoclasts, thus providing a link between coagulation and the tissue destructive processes in pe...

Nanocomposites containing antimicrobial agents and calcium phosphates have been developed. Thus, this study assessed the effects of two compounds containing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and β-calcium glycerophosphate (CaGP), associated or not with tyrosol (TYR), against planktonic cells and biofilms of Candida albicans and Streptococcus mutans. The...

Background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease with a bacterial etiology that affects the supporting structures of the teeth and is a major cause of tooth loss. The objective of this study was to investigate the drug loading and in vitro release of minocycline from novel calcium polyphosphate microspheres intended for use in treating periodon...

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
Waste activated sludge (WAS) can become an important source of phosphorus (P). P speciation was examined under anaerobic conditions, with different pH (4, 6 and 8) and temperatures (10, 20 and 35 °C). Aqueous P was measured and an extraction protocol was used to find three solid phosphorus fractions. A pH of 4 and a temperature of 35 °C gave a maxi...

The objective of this work was to introduce nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) in the formulation of cooked emulsion-type sausages with the aim of assessing its feasibility to assume the role or compensate the lack of some conventional functional ingredients, such as polyphosphates, maize starch, and sodium caseinate. For this aim, sausages based on s...

The aim of this study was to synthesize and characterize nanocomposites formed polyphosphates (sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP) or sodium hexametaphosphate (HMP)) and fluoride (F) associated with silv er nanoparticles. The anti - biofilm activity of the nanocomposites were evaluated against Candida albicans (ATCC ATCC 10231) and Streptococcus mutans (...
