In this paper, flood characteristics along the canal area effected by Hanzhuang Canal jacking are studied. By coupling rainfall runoff (NAM) model with hydrodynamic (HD) model, a 1-D hydrologic-hydrodynamic was built. On basis of parameter calibration and validation, different simulation schemes drawn up, influence range tributaries affected analyzed respectively. The results show that increasi...

This paper examines the ramifications of late twentieth century water management schemes–especially those initiated by the Republic of Turkey–for the riparians of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The Turks’ geographical position, and their ability to construct large water storage systems, has essentially given them command of the headwaters of the Euphrates and, to a lesser degree, the Tigris. ...

Due to insufficient clean water resources wastewater is largely used for irrigation of vegetables in many developing countries, particularly in Pakistan. As a result, vegetables in spite of providing nutrients also accumulate toxic metals and causes health risks. In the present study, comparison of heavy metal contents, using two digestion methods, in fresh and wastewater-irrigated vegetables w...

introduction: effective debridement of the root canal system with chemical irrigants prior to obturation is the key to long-term success of endodontic therapy. the purpose of this study is to compare the antibacterial activity of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (naocl) and 2% iodine potassium iodide (iki) solutions as intracanal disinfectant in infected root canals during one-visit endodontic treatmen...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the root canal preparation in flat-oval canals treated with either rotary or self-adjusting file (SAF) by using micro-tomography analysis. METHODS Forty mandibular incisors were scanned before and after root canal instrumentation with rotary instruments (n = 20) or SAF (n = 20). Changes in canal volume, surface area, and cross-sectional geome...

Treatment of non-vital immature teeth with apical periodontitis has always been a challenge in Endodontics. Regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) has been successfully used for the management of these cases. The aim of this study is to present a case of RET used for the retreatment of a previously endodontically treated permanent tooth with an open apex. A 14-year-old boy with a poor endodont...

INTRODUCTION Endodontic treatment removes all pathogens, such as Enterococcus faecalis from pulp and root canals. The aim of this study is to assess the usefulness of sodium hypo-chlorite (NaOCl) in removing E. faecalis from the root canal used with three different irrigation methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted on freshly extracted maxillary incisors. After biomechanical p...

The purpose of this study was to determine whether chlorhexidine gluconate (0.12%), used as an endodontic irrigating solution, would affect the apical seal of three root canal cements. One hundred, extracted, human, single-canal teeth were divided into 9 experimental groups of 10 teeth each, in addition to a positive and negative control group of 5 teeth each. The teeth were decoronated at the ...
