Electrokinetic transport and distribution of antibacterial nanoparticles for endodontic disinfection
Abstract
AIM: To assess a novel, noninvasive intervention capable of mobilizing charged antibacterial nanoparticles to the apical portions of the root canal system, utilizing the principles of electrokinetics.
METHODS: Experiments were conducted in three stages. Stage-1: A computer model was generated to predict and visualize the electric field and current density distribution generated by the proposed intervention. Stage-2: Transport of chitosan …
