Study of the bactericidal properties of polylactic acid‐based 3D filament

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
PLA with a metallic additive exhibits no antibacterial properties, whereas a photocatalytic TiO2 additive, activated by UV irradiation, produces reactive oxigen species (ROS) that induce bacterial inactivation. Abstract The spread of microorganisms is a global challenge for health, the environment, and the economy.

Australian dental practitioner attitudes to expanding Medicare to include more dental services

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The exclusion of dentistry from Medicare in Australia means there is limited public funding available to address widespread disparities in access to dental care, which is provided predominantly by private practitioners. The aim of this study was to investigate dental practitioners' attitudes towards expanding Medicare to include ...
