Abstract

To investigate the sealing ability of the Clearfil Liner Bond 2 self-etching primer in Class V restorations placed under clinical and laboratory conditions. Firstly, the influence of two etching times of the self-etching primer were tested in vitro. In 10 Class V cavities (Group 1), the self-etching primer was applied for 30 seconds on the enamel and dentin, while in another 10 Class V cavities (Group 2) the etching time was 60 seconds. Since the Group 2 samples showed the best in vitro sealing ability at both the enamel and cementum-dentin sites, the teeth of Group 3 (10 restorations) were restored as in Group 2 under clinical conditions, applying the self-etching primer for 60 seconds. The sample teeth were extracted after 65-90 days, and then processed for leakage. Two other groups of 10 samples each were prepared under laboratory conditions to investigate hybrid layer, resin tags and adhesive lateral branch formation. A flat buccal surface on each extracted tooth was prepared. Group 4 samples were conditioned for 30 seconds, and those of Group 5 for 60 seconds. In Group 1, 40% of the restorations showed leakage at the cementum-dentin site and 40% at the enamel site. Groups 2 and 3 showed statistically significant difference...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
