The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of an experimental primer containing a microperoxidase (MP-11) with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate on adhesive bonding of three different luting systems and dentin. The luting systems prepared were three etch-and-rinse systems (10-3/Super-Bond, 10-0/Super-Bond, 65PA/Super-Bond), a self-etching system (PanaviaF2.0), and a self-adhesive ...

This investigation was carried out for genetic characterization and determination of drought tolerance ten Egyptian cultivars wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), namely Misr 1, 2, Gemmiza 9, 10, 11, 12, Shandawel Giza 168, 171, Sids 14. These were grown in two winter seasons: 2018/2019 2019/2020 at the experimental farm Fac. Agric., Suez Canal Univ., Ismailia, Egypt, under watering regimes: normal (1...

PURPOSE There are several techniques for measuring macular pigment (MP) in vivo, of which Raman spectroscopy (RS) is a recently developed objective METHOD This study reports the reproducibility, test-retest variability, and validity of RS MP readings, by comparing them with heterochromatic flicker photometry (HFP). METHODS MP was measured with HFP and RS in 120 healthy subjects, and the lat...

Durum wheat is the most widely grown cereal in Tunisia, but its production threatened by drought, which exacerbated climate change. This study aimed to identify drought-tolerant durum genotypes from five modern varieties and six landraces a multi-environment trial at two sites (Kef Siliana, Tunisia) during three growing seasons under rainfed irrigated conditions. Six drought tolerance indices (...

Leaf area is among the most important leaf functional traits, and it determines temperature alters light harvesting. The calculation of individual basis calculating index (i.e., total per unit ground area) that directly associated with ability plants to intercept for photosynthesis. It valuable provide a fast reliable approach measuring area. Here, we examined validity accuracy Montgomery equat...

Vineyard mechanical winter pruning has been spreading worldwide, and the physiological basis ascribable to it consolidated throughout years. Despite labor savings reduction of costs having proven, demonstration its economic viability might be challenging. In this context, work aims evaluate vine performances different degrees mechanization over a five-year trial (2011–2015). vineyard cv. Trebbi...

Drought hasunfavorable impacts on the success of agriculture in many parts world.Providing future populations with enough food would obviously require evaluation crop yield, higher potentials, and provision yield stability drought-affected regions. In this research, drought-tolerance wheat genotypes was studied a randomized complete block design three-replication experiment under normal drought...

Purpose. To evaluate the usefulness of microperimetry in the early detection of the ocular anomalies associated with the use of hydroxychloroquine. Methods. Prospective comparative case series study comprising 14 healthy eyes of 7 patients (group A) and 14 eyes of 7 patients under treatment with hydroxychloroquine for the treatment of rheumatologic diseases and without fundoscopic or perimetric...
