newcastle disease (nd) is one of the most serious illnesses of chickens. live vaccines are widely used to prevent chicken from the disease all over the world. to access the effective and potentiate nd vaccine, a homogenous subpopulation from lasota strain was selected following cultivation of the virus on primary chicken embryofibroblast (cef) cells. pathogenicity indices and molecular characte...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: According to the effect of the adhesive and substrate type on the bond strength, examination of the adhesive is required in all aspects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength of different adhesive systems to normal dentin (ND) and caries affected dentin (CAD) in permanent teeth. METHODS: Thirty extracted molars with small occlusal caries were selected...

removal of smear layer and disinfection of canals are important objectives of teeth root canal cleaning. in order to achieve this purpose, rinsing substances, intra canal drugs as well as ultrasound are used. today, use of laser to remove smear layer and to disinfect root canals has increasingly attracted the attentions. till now different lasers such as co2, nd:yag, er:yag, er,cr:ysgg have bee...

statement of problem: the achievement of a good and durable dentin/composite resin bond is an important task in restorative dentistry. the application of acid conditioners and dentin bonding agents is an accepted method to enhance this bond strength. pretreating of dentin surface by laser irradiation seems to be a supplemental way to obtain better results, since lased dentin is more roughened a...

introduction: the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of low-level neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (nd:yag) laser irradiation on orthodontic tooth movement and histological examination. methods: eleven male wistar rats (aged 10 weeks) were included. to produce experimental tooth movement in rats, 10 g force was applied to maxillary first molars with nickel titanium closed coil...
