Some New Directions for ACP Research

An in-vitro Comparison of Calcium Uptake by Intact Enamel after Using two Types of Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate Paste

Background and aim: Dental caries is one of the most common childhood diseases worldwide. The implementation of strategies that facilitate the prevention of early dental caries and interrupt its progression has been recently advocated. It has been reported that casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) derived from casein reduces tooth demineralization and enhances the reminer...

Calibrating predictive model estimates to support personalized medicine

OBJECTIVE Predictive models that generate individualized estimates for medically relevant outcomes are playing increasing roles in clinical care and translational research. However, current methods for calibrating these estimates lose valuable information. Our goal is to develop a new calibration method to conserve as much information as possible, and would compare favorably to existing methods...

Review: Some new bolus tPA-derived fibrinolytics are comparable to tPA in acute MI, but others increase bleeding.

Comparison among Cpp-acp, Fluoride and a Combination of Cpp-acp/ Fluoride and Their Ability to Remineralize White Spot Lesions in Vitro

GUSTAVO OLIVEIRA: Comparison among ACP, Fluoride and a combination of ACP/ Fluoride and their ability to remineralize white spot lesions in vitro (Under the direction of Timothy Wright) This study evaluated the ability of a casein-phosphopeptide amorphous-calcium-phosphate paste (CPP-ACP, MI Paste™), a 1.1% NaF toothpaste containing 5000 ppm of fluoride (ControlRX™) and a CPP-ACP paste with 900...

The Effect of Fruit Trees Pruning Waste Biochar on some Soil Biological Properties under Rhizobox Conditions

The pyrolysis of fruit trees Pruning waste to be converted to biochar with microbial inoculation is a strategy improving the biological properties in calcareous soils. In order to investigate the biochar effect on some soil biological properties of the soil in the presence of microorganisms, a factorial experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design in the rhizobox under greenhous...
