ABSTRACT Occlusal ridges of equines appeared in the evolutionary process of the species to increase its capacity of grazing and trituration. The difference in hardness of dental tissues (cementum, dentin, and enamel) and...

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), owing to its high sensitivity based on localized surface plasmon resonance of nanostructured metals, is recently attracting much attention to be used for biotechnology, such as c...

Scaling Root-Planing (SRP) is a mechanical treatment for removing hard and soft deposits as well as bacteria that adhere to the tooth surface. The additional use of Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) can lead to damage of pathog...

ABSTRACT Pigmentary superficial keratitis (PSK) is a chronic corneal disorder with different causes, which may include immune-mediated diseases and reactions to ultraviolet rays. This study aimed to evaluate the use of a...

The excellent mechanical properties, high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance combined with moderate cost make superferritic stainless steels (SFSS) commercially attractive. Though these steels are finding incr...

Post bleaching procedures often have free radicals trapped in dentin tubule and interprismatic enamel, leading to demineralization and denaturation. Sodium ascorbate is an antioxidant substance known to bind residual fre...

NK cells-based cancer therapy combined with chemotherapeutic drugs for the treatment of tumors can enhance the immunosensitivity of NK cells, increase the expression of NK cell receptors, and eventually boost the killing...
