Thermal analysis (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) allowed to investigate the nanocomposite morphology and the modifications induced by the impregnation.
Such drastic improvement in the activity is due to the unified effects of enhanced charge separation and charge carrier densities, faster charge transfer kinetics, decreased width of depletion layer, and enhanced band bending – lead by the unison of the nanorod arrays morphology and Ni modification.
SEM is a useful technique in the study of both the natural sorbent morphology and its modification derived from sorbate interactions.
Mainly, by improving factors like UV illumination, ZnO particle size, concentration, morphology, and surface modification, powerful antibacterial results would be obtained.
These fascinating developments were the direct result of the advantages of using biotemplates; specifically the capability to mass produce biomaterials of uniform size, precise structure, complex morphology, and surface modification functionality.
Zhang et al. [59] investigated how different sizes, morphology, and surface modification of TiO2 NPs in rutile form regulated their toxic effects on the brain after CD-1 (ICR) female mice were exposed by intranasal instillation every other day for 30 days.
Scanning electron microscopy as well as Raman and FT-IR spectroscopies were used to analyze the morphology and the chemical modifications induced on the MWCNT walls.
DNP morphology and surface chemical modifications were investigated by DLS, SEM and TEM, and FTIR analyses, respectively.
The method, based on Philpott et al. (37), was extended to include daily observation of follicle morphology and length measurement, modifications that reveal more detail.
With the discovery of the association of the armadillo (ARM) repeats of Apc with proteins involved in cytoskeletal dynamics, another important functional role of Apc in cell morphology and migration through modifications of the actin cytoskeleton has become apparent (Buda and Pignatelli, 2004; Giles et al., 2003).
