Influencia del termociclado sobre la estabilidad del color de dos resinas compuestas
Influence of thermocycling on the color stability of two composite resins

Objetivo: Cuando las resinas compuestas son expuestas a procesos de envejecimiento naturales en boca, como es el ciclaje térmico, pueden sufrir un deterioro en sus propiedades ópticas. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la influencia del envejecimiento térmico sobre la estabili...

Effect of frozen storage on preservation of a silicone-based test food material

Braz. j. oral sci; 21 (), 2022
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of frozen storage on the physical properties of a silicone-based test food material, highly used to evaluate the masticatory performance in research settings. Methods: A total of 1,666 silicone cubes of Optosil Comfort® with 5.6-mm edges were shaped and store...

Osteogênese e formação de biofilmes em superfícies de titânio submetidas ao tratamento de implantação iônica por imersão em plasma de oxigênio

Neste estudo foram caracterizadas superfícies de titânio (Ti) obtidas após utilização de diferentes temperaturas pela técnica de implantação iônica por imersão em plasma de oxigênio (O-IIIP), bem como correlacionado o efeito deste tratamento com a osteogênese e formação de biofilmes microbi...

Bubaline Diaphragm Matrix: Development and Clinical Assessment into Cattle Abdominal Hernia Repair

Abstract The purpose of the study was to develop a xenogenic bubaline diaphragm matrix (BDM) for abdominal hernia repair. A fresh diaphragm was decellularized using aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solutions (0.5-4% w/v) over a period. Acellularity was confirmed histologically and characterized by Ma...

Physicomechanical and thermal analysis of bulk-fill and conventional composites

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of conversion (DC) and the thermal stability of bulk-fill and conventional composite resins. Eleven composite resin samples were prepared to evaluate the DC, Vickers microhardness (VMH), mass and residue/particle loss, glass transition temperature...

Hydrodynamic evaluations of four mock femoral venous cannulas

Abstract Objective: To report the results of four mock femoral venous cannulas and the hydrodynamical superiority of one of them, which is the completely punched (CP) model, upon the other three. Methods: Four simulated femoral venous cannulas (single-stage, two-stage, multi-stage, and CP model) were d...

A Novel Porous Diamond - Titanium Biomaterial: Structure, Microstructure, Physico-Mechanical Properties and Biocompatibility

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (4), 2017
ABSTRACT With the aim of introducing permanent prostheses with main properties equivalent to cortical human bone, Ti-diamond composites were processed through powder metallurgy. Grade 1 titanium and mixtures of Ti powder with 2%, 5% and 10 wt% diamond were compacted at 100MPa, and then sintered at 1250°...
