Antibacterial activity of CTAB-modified zeolite NaY with different CTAB loading

Abstract: The antibacterial activity of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) –Modified Zeolite NaY against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was examined in agar disk diffusion (Kirby-Bauer) method. The diameter of the inhibition zones for E. coli and S. aureus, increased from 1.5 to 1.7 cm and 1.9 to 2.0 cm, respectively, with the increasing concentrations of CTAB adsorbed on Zeolite NaY from percent coverage of the External Cation Exchange Capacity of Zeolite NaY: 0.5 to 5.0. CTAB-Modified Zeolite NaY showe… Show more

“…Infections with E. coli can be the cause of diseases such as diarrhea, urinary tract infections, respiratory illness and pneumonia, septicemia, meningitis, and other infections [63,64]. Last, but not least, Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen responsible for superficial mucosal infections and life-threatening systemic candidiasis [23,65,66]. All three genera are important etiological agents of implant-associated infections and orthopedic infections.…”

“…Comparing HDTMA-VMT with other used adsorbents from literature such as Kanaujia et al (2015), Hanumantharao et al (2011), Salim et al (2014, Rayappan et al (2014), andRani et al (2012) among others, it has low efficiency in fluoride removal in groundwater. Table 4 shows some of the reduction effects of competing anions on defluoridation from literature.…”

“…The commercial zeolite NaY, purchased from the Zeolyst International (CBV 100), comprises these properties: SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 mole ratio of 5.1, nominal cation in sodium form (Na 2 O weight (%): 13.0), unit cell size of 24.65Å and surface area of 900 m 2 /g. The external cation exchange capacity (ECEC) of zeolite NaY was 0.53 mequiv/g [9]. 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and dichloromethane (DCM) were purchased from Aldrich and Qrec, respectively.…”
