Developing Implantable High‐Sensitivity Piezoelectric Thin‐Film Sensor to Monitor Partial Discharge of Generator Stator Windings

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulation failures resulting from partial discharges (PD) in generator stator windings represent a leading cause of generator breakdowns. Conventional acoustic emission sensors for detecting PD ultrasonic signals are typically made from bulky piezoelectric materials and are restricted to external placement on the generator.

The effect of chlorhexidine-thymol and fluoride varnishes on the levels of Streptococcus mutans in saliva in children aged 6–8 years

Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2019
Background: Streptococcus mutans is considered as the main pathogenic factor for initiation and progression of dental caries. Fluoride is one of the most effective agents used to control caries. Chlorhexidine (CHX) is the most antimicrobial agent against

Fluoride and sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP) release from fluoride varnishes supplemented with TMP

Brazilian Oral Research, 2016
This study assessed fluoride (F) and sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP) release into artificial saliva from varnishes containing 0%, 2.5%, and 5% NaF, supplemented or not with 5% TMP. The varnishes were applied on polyester sheets (n = 8/group), and F and TMP

Dentifrices for preventing erosive tooth wear: An in vitro comparative study

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Erosive tooth wear is a progressive condition that compromises enamel structure and requires preventive strategies. This in vitro study aimed to compare the protective effects of fluoride‐based dentifrices containing various bioactive agents on sound enamel subjected to simulated erosive–abrasive challenges.

Physicochemical and remineralisation properties of calcium silicate and glass ionomer cements applied in simulated caries‐affected dentine

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Calcium silicate‐based and glass ionomer cements are often used in caries‐affected dentine. This study investigated the remineralising and physicochemical properties of two calcium silicates and a glass ionomer cement. Human molars with Class I cavities were subjected to pH cycling to simulate caries lesions.
