When spinach (Spinacia oleracea) chloroplast fragments were lyophilized and extracted with n-heptane, acid-bath phosphorylation was significantly reduced. Phosphorylation could be restored to these chloroplasts, if the extracted material (containing quinones, carotenoids, and other lipids) was added back to dry preparation before rehydration. The results reported suggest it was not quinones whi...

In the anterior, several factors must be considered when doing direct restorative procedures, including technique, material choice, esthetics, and patient expectations. As it is becoming increasingly common for patients to prefer minimally invasive procedures with high esthetics, particular attention must be given to the technique and materials used to ensure that the patient receives a comfort...

Oral lichenoid reaction is a clinical entity characterized by microscopic features of hypersensitivity due to foreign body or contact reaction. It is usually presented in the cheek mucosa after chronic contact irritation from various materials used in dentistry. Amalgam restoration of tooth cavities has been used for many decades. This filling material is occasionally suspected for chronic epid...

Fast and accurate ridge detection in fingerprints is essential to each AFIS (Automatic Fingerprint Identification System). Smudged furrows and cut ridges in the image of a finger print are major problems in any AFIS. This paper investigates a new online ridge detection method that reduces the complexity and costs associated with the fingerprint identification procedure. The noise in fingerprint...

BACKGROUND Syringomyelia is a fluid-filled tubular cavity within the spinal cord. The exact pathophysiology of syringomyelia remains complex and uncertain. MATERIAL We present a case of resolution of cervical syringomyelia after cervical disc operation in a follow-up time of 6 months. CONCLUSION Restoration of cerebrospinal fluid flow dynamics between the syrinx and the subarachnoid space v...

Restorative dentistry plays an important role in the field of dentistry in restoring the tooth tissue to its form, function esthetics and in maintaining the physiologic integrity in harmony with the surrounding hard and soft tissues. Many of the restorative material used did not adhere to enamel to dentin by physical and / or clinical interactions thus increasing the chances of microleakage at ...

Automatic quality control for audiovisual media is an important tool for broadcasters, archives and content providers in media production, delivery and preservation processes but also for post-production houses when estimating restoration costs. Today mainly technical properties of the material are checked automatically. Other relevant content properties or impairments are manually checked. We ...

introduction: the restoration of endodontically treated teeth is a topic that has been studied extensively but it is still a challenge for dental practitioners. the aim of this study was to evaluate fracture resistance, fracture patterns and fracture location of endodontically treated human maxillary premolars restored with direct and indirect composite resin and ceramic restoration. methods: e...

conclusions the clinical success rates of endodontically treated premolars restored with fiber posts and direct composite restorations, direct composite restorations with cusp capping and simple direct composite restoration were perfect after one year of follow-up evaluation. background endodontically treated teeth need to be restored in a manner to provide protection for the remaining tooth st...
