the rice conversion process is an agricultural transformative industry that consumes a great deal of fossil fuel and electricity. in this study, the effect of different factors on energy consumption, energy consumption index and whitening index were investigated. the experimental design was a split plot design with four whitening periods (15, 30, 45, 60s) (main plot), three rice varieties (khaz...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine whether eyebrow and eyelash whitening is an effective parameter in age estimation. MATERIAL AND METHODS We evaluated 1545 patients. Age groups were 1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60, 61-70, 71-80, and 81-90 years. Level of whitening was categorized as level 0: no whitening, level 1: 1-3 strands, level 2: 3-10 strands, level 3: 10 strands...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of different whitening toothpastes, focusing on the experimental ozonated toothpaste. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This laboratory study included a sample of 48 sound human molar teeth. Teeth were randomly assigned into four groups according to toothpaste treatment to be evaluated objectively (colorimetric method) and subject...

UNLABELLED The popularity of tooth whitening has increased with the advent of patient-applied, peroxide-based whitening agents, as well as increased media influence. Peroxides are considered effective and safe when used under professional supervision. Whitening methods include those prescribed by a dental professional for the patient's at-home use, those applied by the dental professional in th...

The key whitening is a technique intended to enhance the strength of a block cipher. Although some research work involves DPA attacks against the key whitening layer in the compact architecture, there are no literatures dedicated in the influence of the key whitening layers in the loop architecture from the standpoint of DPA. In this paper, we propose a practical chosen message power analysis a...

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of whitening toothpastes and mouthrinses on the color stability of teeth bleached with 16% carbamide peroxide (CP) after immersion in coffee solution. Materials and methods: Specimens obtained from bovine incisors were bleached with 16% CP for 14 days. After bleaching, the specimens were stained in coffee solution for 24 h and randomly divided ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the whitening efficacy of a new two-layer technology in-office system compared to a conventional gel-type system and determine hydrogen peroxide penetration (HPP) into the pulp cavity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Extracted molars (n = 60) were assigned to group NC: glycerol gel; group QPRO: 20% HP varnish (Zoom Quick Pro, Philips Oral Healthcare); group ZOOM_NL: 25% HP gel (Zoom...

In practice, the key whitening layer is a commonly adopted structure in symmetric ciphers, and the loop architecture is widely applied in hardware implementation of these ciphers. Up to now, conventional DPA is hard to recover the key of such ciphers, since the key whitening layer hides the input (output) of the first (last) round from the plaintext (ciphertext). In this paper, we propose a pra...

Stress whitening problem in thermoformed alumina trihydrate (ATH) reinforced poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) was studied. In situ heavy-gage thermoforming of acrylics was entirely replicated under laboratory controlled conditions at different operation parameters. Samples were monitored with optical microscope after the completion of the thermoforming operation. For stress whitening quantifica...
