PURPOSE Commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) has been recognized in dentistry for its biocompatibility, good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Conventional manufacturing processes can affect surface quality and result in poor bonding of dental ceramics to CP Ti. This is why powder metallurgy (P/M) and wire electro-discharge machining (WEDM) are being introduced in the manufacturing ...

BACKGROUND Piglets are born with eight sharp teeth that during nursing can cause facial lesions on littermates and teat lesions on the sow. Teeth grinding in piglets is therefore often practiced to reduce these lesions. The aim of this study was to assess the consequences of grinding piglet teeth in regard to the occurrence of lesions.In this study the piglets' teeth were grinded in 28 litters,...

This study investigated the effect of sowing media on seed germination and subsequent seedling growth Senna fistula L. Treatments were T1 (Top soil), T2 (River sand), T3 (Grinded coconut husk) T4 (weathered sawdust), replicated two times for germination. The treatments arranged in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) data generated was subjected to analysis variance (ANOVA) at 5% level signific...

effect of intermittent mash-pellet feeding programs on broilers performance, ascites susceptibility and economic yield was studied using 480 broilers in six treatments and five replicates of 16 chicks per pen were used in a completely randomized design. treatments including: 1. mash feed, 2. heated-mash feed, 3. mash feed in starter and grower and pellet feed in finisher, 4. mash feed in starte...

Horse gram was germinated at 90% RH at 25°C for 72 h after 24 h soaking and then grinded to pass through 150 μm mesh size screens. The germination of horse gram result in increased protein, fiber, total polyphenol content, and antioxidant activity of horse gram flour whereas fat, ash, carbohydrate, iron, calcium, tannin, phytate, and oxalate were reduced due to germination. Bread was prepared b...
