Supra and subgingival application of antiseptics or antibiotics during periodontal therapy
Abstract Periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis) are characterized by inflammatory processes which arise as a result of disruption of the balance in the oral ecosystem. According to the current S3 level clinical practice guidelines, therapy of patients with periodontitis involves a stepwise approach that includes the control of the patient ...

Microalgal Cell Wall Dynamics at Different Growth Stages Under Cold Stress Conditions: A Study of Ultrastructure and Chemical Composition. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Microalgae have been gaining attention for biotechnological purposes in different fields, such as food, energy, cosmetics, and bioremediation. However, due to habitat variation across the planet, there is still a scarcity of information on microalgae development in extreme environments, such as those with low temperatures.
