Objective: Orthodontists use orthodontic pliers continuously, and these tools have a strong potential for nosocomial infections. This study aimed to compare the efficiency of three methods disinfecting pliers. Material Methods: The active tips 26 (distal end cutters Weingart pliers) were contaminated with S. aureus, E. coli, C. albicans microorganisms, viruses, spores. microbial control 70% alc...

Abstract Due their multifaced applications, the access to organosulfur derivatives in an efficient and economical way is a challenge organic synthesis. In this context photochemistry photocatalysis play crucial role development of innovative (and selective) Carbon‐Sulphur bond formation processes. The present review aims collect most recent strategies achieve target under visible light driven c...

The rapid activation and feedback regulation of many G protein signaling cascades raises the possibility that the critical signaling proteins may be tightly coupled. Previous studies show that the PDZ domain containing protein INAD, which functions in Drosophila vision, coordinates a signaling complex by binding directly to the light-sensitive ion channel, TRP, and to phospholipase C (PLC). The...

Introduction: Discoloration of resin composites is a common reason for replacement of these restorations. The aim of this study was to eva-luate the influence of different light curing de-vices on color stability of a microhybrid resin composite.  Materials and Methods: 80 disc-shaped speci-mens (8 mm in diameter, 2-mm height) were fabricated from filtek Z250 resin composite. Specimens wer...
