statement of problem: recent clinical results for zirconia all-ceramic restorations have revealed that the fracture rate 6-15% of the zirconia framework is so low and the core of zirconia has high stability. however, chipping-off fractures of porcelain are the most common reason for failures of zirconia in the fixed partial dentures. objectives: the purpose of this study was to compare the shea...

with the aim of the secretion of human granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (hgm-csf) in escherichia coli, hgm-csf cdna was fused in-frame next to the signal sequence of st toxin (st-i) of exteroxigenic e. coli, containing 53 or 19 amino acids of signal peptide. the fused stsig::hgm-csf coding fragments were inserted into a t7-based expression plasmid. the recombinant plasmids were ...

conclusions the patient underwent surgery applying a midline incision. the left kidney showed a lump pattern embedded in lower pole of the right kidney. left sided nephrectomy was performed while temporary right renal artery was clamped temporarily. histopathological evaluation revealed clear cell carcinoma with severe nuclear atypia (fuhrman grade 4/4). however, local recurrence was not detect...

1,3-Diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-7(1H)-one, the oxidation product of 1,3-diphenyl-1,4-dihydro-1,2,4-benzotriazin-4-yl (Blatter's radical), reacts with N'-arylbenzamidines in PhMe at ca. 100 °C in the presence of N,N-diisopropylethylamine (Hünig's base) (1 equiv.) to give N'-aryl-N-(1,7-dihydro-7-oxo-1,3-diphenylbenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-6-yl)benzimidamides in 49-95% yield. In neat AcOH heated at...

Fig. 1. Our technique enables color printing with precisely controlled gradients using a filament printer. Le : The printer is equipped with an o -the-shelf nozzle that inputs multiple filaments (three in the picture) and outputs molten mixed plastic through a single exit hole. Such devices cannot directly be used to print gradients: the transition between mixtures takes time, and this timing v...

Let G be a finite group. In [5], Hambleton, Taylor and Williams have considered the question of comparing Mackey functors for G and biset functors defined on subgroups of G and bifree bisets as morphisms. This paper proposes a different approach to this problem, from the point of view of various categories of G-sets. In particular, the category G-set of fused G-sets is introduced, as well as th...

Thermophilic bacteria play an important role in aroma formation during pile-fermentation process of dark tea. With the aim to reveal impact thermophilic on volatile compounds tea, Bacillus licheniformis (thermophilic bacteria) were inoculated into sun-dried green tea for spontaneous fermentation. In this study, headspace solid phase microextraction combined gas chromatography mass spectrometry ...

Many variables control the critical current density (Jc ) in BSCCO-2223 composites but not all of them are yet well understood, or even positively identified. One important factor is reported to be the density of the BSCCO filament, as measured by microhardness. Since different deformation processes may be used during fabrication, and each can have a different effect on the final BSCCO core den...

Extruder path generation for a new rapid prototyping technique named “Curved Layer Fused Deposition Modeling” (CLFDM) has been presented. The prototyping technique employs deposition of material in curved layers in contrast to flat layers as in Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM). The proposed method would be particularly advantageous over FDM in the manufacturing of thin, curved parts (shells) by ...
