The medical stone is a type of natural stone which is ric h in Silicon and many metal and trace elements. elements.[ The composite antibacterial agents were prepared with “medical stone” containing Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ by liquid ion-exchange reaction. The ion exchange capacity of the medical stone composite antibacterial agents (MSAA) were investigated by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Specrometry ICP-AES), and the antibacterial activities of these agents were tested by bacteriostasis ratio and the structures were characterized by X-Ray Diffractomer(XRD) and Scanning electron microscope SEM). The results show that the conditions of preparation, such as pH, concentrations of copper and zinc ions, reaction time and reaction temperature, have important influences on the ion exchange of MSAA. The maximum ion exchange capacity have been obtained when 0.2 mol/L Cu 2+ and 0.6 mol/L Zn 2+ reacted with medical stone in the solution with pH of 8 for 8 hours at 50 ºC. Meanwhile good antibacterial activities and safety are also gained. The reasons for causing the above results are that copper and zinc ions can enter into the framework of medical stone by ion exchanging and adsorption, and are slowly released owing tostone porosity..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
