This study provides the palynological analysis of 12 Crucianella L. taxa using LM and SEM. Variations in pollen size, aperture number, and exine ornamentation were identified as key traits, demonstrating their taxonomic value for distinguishing closely related species and subspecies within the genus. ABSTRACT Crucianella L.

Characterization of Dental Composite Resin with Additional TiO2 Nanoparticle Filler
Silanized SiO2‐based dental composite resins with and without TiO2 nanoparticle addition were fabricated using a Bis‐GMA/TEGDMA resin matrix and photopolymerized under 468‐470 nm UV light. The resulting composites, composite I (55% SiO2) and composite II (50% SiO2 + 5% TiO2), were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform ...
