Abstract Rubbing phosphoric acid during etching has been shown to improve surface roughness in prepared enamel. This study aimed to compare intact enamel's surface roughness and resin tag lengths after etching with and without rubbing. Extracted sound third molars were used for testing, mesially for conventional and distally for dynamic (rubbing ...

Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the effects of adding chitosan (Chi) to desensitizing agents applied before dental bleaching on enamel properties. Bovine enamel specimens were allocated to seven groups (n = 12): no treatment (negative control), 2% NaF (positive control), 2% NaF + 2% Chi, 2% NaF + 5% Chi, 2% NaF + 5% KNO3, 2% NaF + 5% KNO3 + 2 ...

Using grape seed extract to reduce erosive potential of drinks
Abstract The aim of this study was to verify whether supplementation of grape seed extract (GSE) to different erosive beverages reduces their erosive potential on dentine in vitro. One‐hundred dentine specimens were randomly assigned to 5 groups (n = 20/group): control‐deionized water, 1%‐citric acid, Red Bull, Coca‐Cola, and Powerade.

Key Points Higher laser repetition rate, fluence and larger spot size increase signal intensity. Higher laser repetition rate produces overlaps in aerosolised particles, improving signal stability and precision. For Sr‐rich materials, moderate spot diameter (≤ 60 μm), 3 J cm‐2 fluence and ≥ 12 Hz repetition rate are recommended.

Auxin response and PIN‐mediated transport in chlorophyte algae
Like multicellular plants, green algae respond to auxin and move it across their cells. However, their PIN‐like proteins do not act like plant auxin exporters, suggesting that basic auxin transport evolved early and specialized directional transport appeared later in plant evolution.
