introduction lidocaine plus epinephrine is the most common anesthetic drug used in dentistry which has important cardiovascular side-effects like increase in blood pressure and cardiac arrhythmia. the goal of this study was to evaluat cardiovascular effects of one cartridge of 2% lidocaine + 1:80000 epinephrine. methods and materials 60 cases without any systemic diseases who had been admitted ...

Platinum extraction from spent reforming catalysts in iodine solutions under atmospheric pressure at different temperatures, acid concentration, and iodine spices concentration, catalyst particle size, and impeller agitation speed have been studied in our group. In this system, platinum is oxidized from spent catalyst with I3¯ that is formed ...

This case report illustrates the use of ExPRESS mini-shunt in a pediatric glaucoma patient. We describe the management of steroid-induced glaucoma with ExPRESS mini-shunt in a 9-year-old boy with allergic keratoconjunctivitis. The intraocular pressure of both of his eyes was uncontrolled with medical and laser treatment. Both eyes were treated with ExPRESS mini-shunt and mitomycin-C. Transient ...

Milk fat was fractionated into liquid (m.p. congruent to 12 degrees C), intermediate (m.p. congruent to 21 degrees C) and solid (m.p. congruent to 39 degrees C) fractions by three different processes--melt crystallization, short-path distillation and supercritical CO2 extraction--and the cholesterol content of these fractions determined. Cholesterol was enriched in the liquid fractions from all...

High pressure, at 250 and 400 MPa, for 10 or 20 min, was applied at either of two stages: during pre-treatment in acid at 10 8C to facilitate destabilisation of acid labile crosslinks, or during extraction in water at 45 8C to accelerate collagen hydrolysis. The resulting gelatins were evaluated in terms of yield of extraction, molecular weight distribution by SDS-PAGE, and viscoelastic propert...

Retinal function is known to be more resistant than blood flow to acute reduction of ocular perfusion pressure (OPP). To understand the mechanisms underlying the disconnect between blood flow and neural function, a mathematical model is developed in this study, which proposes that increased oxygen extraction ratio compensates for relative ischemia to sustain retinal function. In addition, the m...
