An indigenously designed apparatus for measuring orthodontic force.
AIM An indigenous apparatus is designed to measure the orthodontic force delivered from elastomeric chains and compare this force with values obtained from the Instron universal testing machine. MATERIAL AND METHODS An indigenously designed apparatus is developed to evaluate forces delivered by various orthodontic auxiliaries. The apparatus consists of a flat steel platform, movable arm, and ...
متن کاملIndigenously designed meconium aspirator.
Meconium stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) complicates delivery in approximately 8% to 25% of live births. Approximately 5% of neonates born through MSAF develop meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS), and approximately 50% of these infants require mechanical ventilation. Meconium aspiration before or during birth can obstruct airways, interfere with gas exchange and cause severe respiratory distress [...
متن کاملEffects of a newly designed apparatus on orthodontic skeletal anchorage
OBJECTIVE An appliance was designed to increase the cortical bone surface contact area of miniscrew implants (MSIs). The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of this appliance on the anchorage force resistance and the stability of orthodontic MSIs. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 48 MSIs were placed into bone specimens prepared from the ilium of bovines. Half were place...
متن کاملAn apparatus for measuring the gas permeability of films.
The gas permeability of plastic films is important in packaging, containment, and agricultural fumigation. Recently, an approach for estimating the mass transfer coefficient of vapors across a film was presented by Papiernik et al. (2001). The mass transfer coefficient is an intrinsic property of a film-chemical combination, independent of the concentration gradient maintained across the film. ...
متن کاملAn apparatus for measuring the tensile strength of blood clots.
An apparatus is described which uses the principle of the ballistic pendulum to measure the tensile strength of blood clots formed in special cuvettes. The method appears to have a reproducibility which would allow a study to be made of the factors influencing clot strength. A brief survey of the findings with normal blood and with blood from cases of thrombosis and haemophilia shows significan...
