Difference of Chemical Bonds Between UDMA Bonding Agents with Ethanol Solvent and Acetone Solvent on Dentin Collagen

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the difference of chemical bonds between urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) bonding agents with ethanol solvent and acetone solvent on dentin collagen. Material and Methods: This experimental comparison study used three groups: G1 (Control): UDMA and collagen; G2: UDMA, c...

Rubbing time and bonding performance of one-step adhesives to primary enamel and dentin

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (5), 2017
Abstract Objectives: This study investigated whether increasing the concentration of acidic monomers in one-step adhesives would allow reducing their application time without interfering with the bonding ability to primary enamel and dentin. Material and methods: Experimental one-step self-etch adhesiv...

Purification of inulinases by changing the ionic strength of the medium and precipitation with alcohols

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (1), 2017
ABSTRACT The present study evaluated the purification of inulinase by changing the ionic strength of the medium by addition of NaCl and CaCl2 followed by precipitation with n-propyl alcohol or iso-propyl alcohol. The effects of the concentration of alcohols and the rate of addition of alcohols in the cru...

Influence of solvents on the bond strength of resin sealer to intraradicular dentin after retreatment

Abstract This study evaluated the removal of filling material with ProTaper Universal Rotary Retreatment system (PTR) combined with solvents and the influence of solvents on the bond strength (PBS) of sealer to intraradicular dentin after canal reobturation. Roots were endodontically treated and distribu...

Process optimization for production and purification of a thermostable, organic solvent tolerant lipase from Acinetobacter sp. AU07

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to isolate, purify and optimize the production conditions of an organic solvent tolerant and thermostable lipase from Acinetobacter sp. AU07 isolated from distillery waste. The lipase production was optimized by response surface methodology, and a maximum production...

Dissolution of a mineral trioxide aggregate sealer in endodontic solvents compared to conventional sealers

Braz. oral res. (Online); 30 (1), 2016
Abstract The aim of this study is to evaluate the solubility of a Mineral Trioxide Aggregate sealer (MTA-Fillapex) compared with five other sealers, calcium hydroxide (Sealapex), resin (Realseal), zinc oxide-eugenol (Tubli-Seal), and two epoxy resins (AH-26 and AH-Plus), in chloroform and eucalyptoil in ...

Effect of the time-point of acid etching on the persistence of sealer residues after using different dental cleaning protocols

Braz. oral res. (Online); 30 (1), 2016
Abstract: Endodontic sealer residues remaining within the pulp chamber dentin after root canal obturation and cleaning with various solvents may compromise the appearance and the durability of dental restorations. Acid etching is routinely performed prior to application of dentine adhesive systems, but i...

Antitumor and anti-angiogenic potentials of isolated crude saponins and various fractions of Rumexhastatus D. Don

Biol. Res; 49 (), 2016
BACKGROUND: Cancer, being the foremost challenge of the modern era and the focus of world-class investigators, gargantuan research is in progress worldwide to explore novel therapeutic for its management. The exploitation of natural sources has been proven to be an excellent approach to treat or minify t...

Anticariogenic activity of the active fraction from isertia laevis against S. mutans and S. sobrinus: comparison of two extraction methods

Acta odontol. latinoam; 23 (3), 2010
Dental caries is considered a multi-factorial, infectious, chronic, localized, post-eruptive, transmissible disease that leads to the destruction of dental hard tissue. The recognition of Streptococcus mutans as the major bacterial species involved in dental caries has led to the implementation of preven...
