Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of sorghum-based distillers dried grains with solubles in isocaloric diets for nursery and finishing pigs. Rate and efficiency of gain in nursery pigs were decreased with 45% or more distillers grains. For finishing pigs, efficiency of gain was improved as distillers grains was increased to 60% of the diet, and carcass fatness was increase...

The chief goal of full coronal restoration using preformed stainless steel crowns (SSC) is replication of normal crown form and function. Marginal adaptation of SSCs involves appropriate crown size selection, trimming the crown form to achieve proper length, crimping crown edges to proximate the prepared tooth, and finishing and polishing the crown form. This report about SSC restoration focuse...

The contrast gloss and the average roughness were measured for four commercial composite filling materials. Using a factorial design, each material was subjected to four available finishing methods. A significant difference was found in the contrast gloss among finishing methods, and a significant linear regression is given which relates the inverse of the contrast gloss to the average roughnes...

Jaya Prakash Dr. Elgin, Dr. Shaffer Biology 434W 10 February 2017 Finishing of DEUG4927010 Abstract The goal of this project was to prepare the DEUG4927010 contig—which covers the terminal 99,279 bases from the fourth chromosome of Drosophila eugracilis—for annotation. In the initial assembly of this project, there were 122 high quality discrepancies and 49 regions with low depth of coverage. N...

Ultrasonic elliptical vibration cutting has recently been utilized in industry for finishing of various precision parts such as mirror surface finishing and precision micro machining of dies and molds. However, its application has been limited to high-cost ultra-precision machining, where depth of cut is typically in a range from a few micrometers to several tens of micrometers due to power lim...

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of different finishing and polishing systems on the surface roughness, microhardness and microleakage of a nano-hybrid composite. The effect of four different finishing and polishing systems (Mylar-strip, Diamond finishing bur, Sof-lex disc, PoGo) were evaluated on a nanohybrid composite (Ceram-X mono, Denstply). The surface roughness was measured ...

Two receiving and two finishing trials evaluated energy source and escape protein supplementation for calves. In receiving Trial 1, 398 calves (257 +/- 24 kg BW) were used in a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Energy sources were dry-rolled corn (DRC) and wet corn gluten feed (WCGF); each was fed without or with supplemental escape protein (EP). Calves fed WCGF gained slower (P < .05)...

Aim: The study evaluated the efficiency of various finishing and polishing systems and the effect of finishing and polishing time by using various procedures on surface roughness and hardness of silorane based (FiltekP90) and methacrylate based (Z100) restorative materials. Method: The surface roughness and surface hardness were measured using a profilometer and Vickers hardness tester respecti...
