Abstract Currently, most of the collected waste medium-density fiberboards (MDF) is incinerated or landfilled, as economically viable recycling methods are yet to be developed. By steam refining (MDF), it possible hydrolyze incorporated resins and isolate a high yield fiber fraction. Further treated fibers might enable utilized in applications such paper packaging, facilitating cascading use ma...

introduction: hyperplastic pulpitis (pulp polyp)tissues contains cells with stem cell properties similar to that of the dental pulp stem cells (dpscs). it has also been shown that cd146 enrichment can homogenize the cultures of dpscs and enhance the colony forming potentials of their cultures. this study determines whether cd146 enrichment can help purifying the stem cells from heterogeneous cu...

the present study was carried out to investigate the effect of various refining processes’ conditions on conjugated dienes in soybean oil. conjugated dienes contents of soybean oil were found to undergo reduction in neutralization and bleaching steps while being increased in deodorization. it was observed that alkali refining (neutralization) through 12 and 14 °bé, bleaching with either acid ac...

Introduction: The main aim during any dental treatment is to maintain vital pulp as long as possible. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess clinically the use of MTA in direct pulp capping in adult patient. Method: MTA was performed in two visits treatment protocol on direct pulp capping in adult. Results: Clinical and radiological examination conducted after 7 months post treatment of...

BACKGROUND Recent studies reported on the very complex morphology of the pulp system in equine cheek teeth. The continuous production of secondary dentine leads to distinct age-related changes of the endodontic cavity. Detailed anatomical knowledge of the dental cavities in all ages is required to explain the aetiopathology of typical equine endodontic diseases. Furthermore, data on mandibular ...

Emphasis has shifted from the "doomed" organ concept of an exposed pulp to one of hope and recovery. The era of vital-pulp therapy has been greatly enhanced with the introduction of various pulp capping materials. The aim of this article is to summarize and discuss about the various and newer pulp capping materials used for protection of the dentin-pulp complex.

BACKGROUND Successful pulp regeneration depends on identification of pulp stem cells capable of differentiation under odontoblastic lineage and producing pulp-dentinal like structure. Recent studies demonstrate that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) plays an important role in damage repair and tissue regeneration. The aim of this study was to identify a subpopulation of dental pulp cells re...

Particles in mechanical pulp show a wide variety but are commonly described using averages and/or collective properties. The authors suggest distributions of common bonding factor, BIND (Bonding INDicator), for each particle. BIND-distribution is based on factor analysis particle diameter, wall thickness, and external fibrillation several pulps measured an optical analyser. A characteristic set...
