Multiphase flows are very common in industry, oftentimes involving very harsh environments and fluids. Accordingly, there is a need to determine the dispersed phase holdup using noninvasive fast responding techniques; besides, knowledge of the flow structure is essential for the assessment of the transport processes involved. The ultrasonic technique fulfills these requirements and could have the capability to provide the information required. In this paper, the potential of the ultrasonic technique ...

Clinical Relevance The effects of polishing techniques on surface roughness, microhardness and microleakage of resin composites are material dependent. In general, since immediate polishing has not had a negative influence on the tested properties of the two composites compared to delayed polishing, this procedure could be preferred, reducing the number of clinic sessions and bringing more comfort and satisfaction to the patient.

Since there is a lack of information on the surface properties of composite restorations achieved with standard polishing procedures after aging processes, this study evaluated the effects of immediate (IM) and delayed (DE) polishing on the surface roughness (Ra), microhardness (KHN) and microleakage (ML) of microfilled (Filtek A110) and hybrid (Filtek Z250) resin composites after one-year storage. Standardized preparations were made on the buccal surface of 256 bovine teeth, where half were restored with ...

Oxindole administration (1-100 mg/kg i.p.) to mammals decreases locomotor activity, reduces muscular tone and blood pressure and at larger doses causes coma and death. Utilizing both HPLC and GC/MS, we showed that oxindole is present in the blood, brain and other organs of several animal species, including humans. We demonstrated that oxindole is a tryptophan metabolite able to significantly decrease neuronal excitability by modifying the function of voltage-operated sodium channels. Its synthesis ...

Abstract Over the years, several drugs have been developed deriving from plants to investigate possible therapeutic roles. Among them, curcuminoids and coumarins, which, display a wide range of biological activity against several strains. Therefore, it was synthesized a curcuminoids‐coumarin derivative by a mechanochemical multicomponent reaction. By NMR and HRMS results confirmed the formation of a mixture of three curcuminoids‐coumarin derivatives in the same sample. The Influence of time during ...

Introduction Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) have been described as structures composed of DNA and proteins, such as elastase and myeloperoxidase, which are able to kill bacteria extracellularly. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of NETs in bone resorption observed in pulp infection-induced apical periodontitis in mice. Methods Apical periodontitis was experimentally induced by exposing the dental pulp of the mandibular first molar of mice to the oral microenvironment. The ...

Abstract Background and Purpose Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that can cause bone erosion due to increased osteoclastogenesis. Neutrophils involvement in osteoclastogenesis remains uncertain. Given that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) can act as inflammatory mediators in rheumatoid arthritis, we investigated the role of NETs in stimulating bone loss by potentiating osteoclastogenesis during arthritis. Experimental Approach The level of NETs in synovial fluid from ...

Abstract Beyond well-assessed risk factors, cardiovascular events could be also associated with the presence of epigenetic and genetic alterations, such as the methylenetetrahydrofolate-reductase ( MTHFR ) C677T polymorphism. This gene variant is related to increased circulating levels of homocysteine (Hcy) and cardiovascular risk. However, heterozygous carriers have an augmented risk of cardiovascular accidents independently from normal Hcy levels, suggesting the presence of additional deregulated processes ...
