Purpose: To assess the sterilization effectiveness on uterine tube of rabbit by the cyanoacrylate adhesive. Methods: Hysteroscopy tubal catheterization was performed randomly in 12 animals (24 uterine tubes) assigned to the sham group (GS) and 15 animals (30 uterine tubes) to the n-butyl-cyanoacrylate (GB). The female rabbits were observed during 30, 90 and 180 days and mated to fertile males. ...

objective: comparing the effect of repeated opening of the container lid of two dentin adhesive systems, prime&bond; nt (p&b; nt) and ibond (ib), on shear bond strength. materials and methods: intact bovine lower incisors (n=60), fixed in acrylic were ran-domly divided into six groups (n=10). groups i and ii were set as control groups. p&b; nt and ib were applied on the samples after five days ...

OBJECTIVE Resin infiltration is considered as a treatment option for initial caries lesions. As cavitated early lesions might require additional restorative intervention, a caries infiltrant might be also used for enamel conditioning prior to composite insertion. This study aimed to analyse the shear bond strength of a flowable composite to sound and demineralised enamel pretreated with a carie...

The complex problems of predicting adhesive bond strength for both adhesive and cohesive defects have been studied usinq an ultrasonic, experimental test bed system. This experimental test bed incorporates the ultrasonic and computer equipment necessary to acquire and process data from various types of adhesively bonded test specimens. The computer hardware and software have been developed to a...

AIM The aim of this study was to compare the microtensile bond strength of three adhesive systems, using different methods of dentin preparation. MATERIALS AND METHODS A hundred and eight bovine teeth were used. The dentin from buccal face was exposed and prepared with three different methods, divided in 3 groups: Group 1 (DT)- diamond tip on a high-speed handpiece; Group 2 (CVD)-CVD tip on a...

adhesive bonding technology is being used in a variety of modern industries, including the automotive, aerospace, maritime, construction, defense and so on. on the other side, polymeric nano - composites attracted both academic and industrial interests in the past decades. the scope of this paper is experimental investigation on the effects of the addition of alpha-alumina nanoparticles to the ...

background and aims. effect of surface treatments on repair bond strength of aged composite resins might be different due to their dissimilar fillers. the aim was to evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on repair micro-shear bond strength (µsbs) of silica- (spectrum tph) and zirconia-filled (filtek z250) composite resins. materials and methods. twenty-seven composite resin blocks...

To evaluate the interactive influence of adhesive materials and surface treatments on bond strength of zirconium oxide ceramics, six types of adhesive resin cements (RelyX ARC (RA), Super-Bond C & B (SB), Linkmax (LM), Panavia Fluoro Cement (PF), Bistite II (BT), and Imperva Dual (ID)), three types of resin-reinforced glass ionomer cements (Xeno Cem Plus (XC), Vitremer Luting (VR), and Fuji Lut...
