The consumption of soda pop in the United States continues to increase in alarming proportions with consequent drastic effects on the dentition of many people. Patients should be asked about how much soda pop they ingest. Parents should be counseled on the effects of soda pop demineralization and begin to limit the amounts given to children at home and in schools. The dental team has the expert...

Paper sheets from Iranian olive tree produced by soda, sulphite and kraft pulping.Then the influence of pulp beating on properties of paper sheets was studied. Kraft pulp exhibited the highest holocellulose/yield -cellulose/yield ratios and the sulphite pulp the soda pulp the highest lignin/yield ratio. Paper sheets from kraft with the breaking length 5851 m, stretch 4.61%, Burst index 4.48 KN/...

Alkaline saline soils, known also as "soda solonchaks", represent a natural soda habitat which differs from soda lake sediments by higher aeration and lower humidity. The microbiology of soda soils, in contrast to the more intensively studied soda lakes, remains poorly explored. In this work we investigate the diversity of culturable aerobic haloalkalitolerant bacteria with various hydrolytic a...

This report describes the isolation, sequencing, and functional analysis of the sodA gene, encoding Mn-superoxide dismutase, from Streptococcus thermophilus AO54. The gene was found to encode a 201 amino acid polypeptide with 88 and 83% identity to SodA from Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus agalacticae, respectively. Primer extension analysis revealed a transcriptional start site 27 nucle...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate and compare the effectiveness in reducing plaque of a fluoride dentifrice containing baking soda and a non-baking soda fluoride dentifrice containing an antimicrobial (triclosan/copolymer) system after a single brushing and over a four-week period of daily brushing. METHODS A total of 207 subjects completed this randomized, blinded, parallel-group clinical study. Twenty-...
