The ART approach: clinical aspects reviewed

The success of ART as a caries management approach is supported by more than 20 years of scientific evidence. ART follows the contemporary concepts of modern cariology and restorative dentistry. It challenges treatment concepts such as step-wise excavation and the need for complete removal of affected dentine. The ART approach so far has mainly used high-viscosity glass-ionomer as the sealant a...

Some aspects of the airborne transmission of infection.

The relationship between the human body and the dissemination of potentially pathogenic particles and droplets is described. Airborne transmission of infection in operating theatres and a burns unit and the part played by the human microclimate and its interaction with ventilating air flows is discussed. The mechanisms by which different garment assemblies used for surgery can enhance particle ...

Target antigens of transmission-blocking immunity on gametes of plasmodium falciparum

Three proteins of apparent molecular weights on reducing SDS-PAGE of 255, 59, and 53 kilodaltons have been identified as the targets on gametes of P. falciparum malaria of two monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) that act synergistically to block transmission of the parasites to mosquitoes.

Phonotactic blocking through structural immunity

These are all phenomena in which phonological generalizations are defied. Quite different approaches have been taken to them in the past. For strict cycle effects, conditions such as the Strict Cycle Condition (Mascaró 1976, Kiparsky 1982) have been proposed; lexical exceptionality has been handled by morphemic exception features (e.g. Chomsky & Halle 1968); geminate inalterability has inspired...
