statement of problem: the casein phospho peptide-amorphous calcium phosphate with or without fluoride (cpp-acpf and cpp-acp respectively) are of considerably new materials which are highly recommended for prevention of dental caries. however, there is a shortage in literature on how they affect the ion concentration of saliva or dental plaque. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate t...

INTRODUCTION Earlier work from this laboratory (9, 11) has shown that the addition of fluoride permits isotonic homogenates of the Walker 256 carcinosarcoma and the Flexner-Jobling carcinoma to oxidize to an appreciable extent the various inter mediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle when sup plemented with adenosinetriphosphate (ATP). From data on phosphate balance (11, 12), it has been sugge...

The complexity of the human brain gives illusion that activity is intrinsically high-dimensional. Nonlinear dimensionality-reduction methods such as uniform manifold approximation and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding have been used for high-throughput biomedical data. However, they not extensively data those from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), primarily due to their in...

Effect of inorganic phosphate on ferrous ionand ascorbate-induced lipid. peroxidations of isolated rat liver mitochondria was investigated. As a result it has been shown that phosphate accelerates the ferrous ion.induced lipid peroxidation; namely, phos. phate shortens the induction lag period of the lipid peroxidation reaction but the malondialdehyde after onset of its production is yielded at...

statement of the problem generally, the main source of fluoride intake is drinking water. excessive consumption of bottled water as a substitute or in addition to the tap water supply may have implications for safe fluoride supplementation. in this study, fluoride contents in six commercial brands of bottled water were measured materials and methods six different brands of bottled drinking wate...

Primary Examiner-Ronald W. Griffin Assistant Examiner-Pamela S. Webber Attorney, Agent, or Firm-Robert P. Gibson; Edward Goldberg; Edward F. Costigan 57 ABSTRACT A process for denitrating the dinitrate ester of diethyl eneglycol is disclosed which comprises introducing the dinitrate ester of diethyleneglycol into an aqueous phos phate buffer containing the tripeptide reduced glutathi one and th...

tea is the second most commonly consumed beverage world wide. tea ( camellia sinensis ) is a naturally rich source of fluoride. the quantity of fluoride intake is important in optimizing its dental caries-preventive role. intense concentration of fluoride in tea, can lead to excessive fluoride intake which may cause health problems in turn. the measurement of fluoride intake usually requires in...

calcium fluoride deposit during fluoride application. uptake and retention of fluoride by saliva depends generally on the concentration of calcium. in this study, the effect of calcium pre-rinse on salivary fluoride concentration after a 900 ppm fluoride mouthwash was investigated.this cross-over double-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted in a girls' dormitory in zahedan university of...
