background: organic solvents are known as a group of organic compounds, widely used in industry and to which many workers are exposed. neurotoxicity is one of the most important complications of the chronic exposure to the solvents and may causes neurobehavioral disorders in workers. we have studied the frequency of neurobehavioral disorders in workers exposed to organic solvents in one of the ...

background: workers exposed to organic solvents are at risk of developing chronic central nervous system disorders. the aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the neurobehavioral effects of occupational exposure to organic solvents among pharmaceutical laboratory workers. methods: the study groups consisted of 78 laboratory workers as the exposed group and 98 office workers as une...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the effect of post space preparation with gates glidden drills or hand files on the sealing ability of gutta-percha or resilon obturation materials. materials and methods: one-hundred and four single-rooted human teeth were instrumented and divided into four experimental groups (n=21 each) and two groups of positive and negative control (n=10)....

in recent years, newly developed solvent-free dental adhesives have been introduced. the aim of this study was to evaluate the marginal integrity of a new one-step solvent-free self-etch adhesive and to compare it with a commonly used two-step self-etch adhesive as the gold standard.class v cavities (2×4×1.5 mm) were prepared on the buccal aspects of 28 human premolars. the cervical margins of ...

peroxyoxalate system includes an oxalate ester, peroxide and a fluorescer, the energy resulted from the reaction of oxalate ester and peroxide is transferred to fluorescer and cause it to fluorsc. the effect of reactants chemical structure, their concentration, solvent media (polarity and viscosity) and the temperature, on the intensity of the illuminated light with respect to time have been st...

conclusions the most effective enhancer for aha and ha were liquid paraffin and glycerol, respectively. the most effective surfactant for both aha and ha was tween 80. the effects of the enhancers were increased by prolonging the exposure time. results after 1.5 and 12 hours, the maximum permeated amount of aha were 89.8 and 342.5 mg, respectively, which related to the formulations with liquid ...

the present investigation was aimed at studying the effect of incubation period, media, vitamins and solvents on biotransformation of albendazole by cunninghamella blakesleeana. the transformation was evaluated and identified by high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) and the structures of the transformed products were assigned by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (lc/ms/ms) ...

background: histamine is a food-borne chemical hazard which causes scombroid poisoning. the efficiency of histamine recovery from fish is greatly influenced by selection of an appropriate extraction solvent. hence, in this study the efficiency of different extraction solvents on recovery of histamine from fresh, frozen and canned fish was evaluated. methods: fresh, frozen and canned rainbow tro...
