Background: Anterior crossbite is a case that when upper anterior are positioned palatally than lower teeth in centric occlusion. Orthodontic appliances using expansion screw could be solution for tooth treatment. Purpose: To figure out the optimal fabrication process of orthodontic single screw. Case analysis: Dental laboratory provided maxillary dental appliance with on 21. technician also re...

A method of processing haematological laboratory data based on the IBM 870 system is described. As the cards are being punched with the identification particulars of the patient and source of the sample, a worksheet is automatically generated on which the tests are indicated. The results of the laboratory tests are recorded by the technician on the worksheet and reproduced on the punch cards wh...

The Acquisition, Analysis, Visualization and Imaging laboratory, AVI-Lab, is at the Department of Life, Health and Environmental Sciences of the University of L’Aquila. It was established in 1995 and, since then, the research activity is mostly centred on the study, development and testing of algorithms for signal acquisition and processing, image reconstruction, enhancement, filtering, analysi...

Studies of the occurrence and survival of sewage-origin bacteria in coastal waters and sediments continued this year at the marine microbiology laboratory at California State University at Long Beach. The goal of these studies has been to determine what relationships, if any, exist between the routinely sampled indicator bacteria (e.g., coliforms, fecal streptococci) and pathogenic bacteria (e....

Development of aesthetic restorations requires a careful, thorough, and concise team approach. The correct design of the gingival margin will significantly affect the overall appearance of the restorations, and the development of scalloped interdental papillae is equally paramount to restorative success. Tooth morphology can only be reestablished in a natural way when the soft tissue is compati...

At this time, the quality of a Whole Slide Image (WSI) is verified a posteriori by a technician or a pathologist. A WSI of insufficient quality needs to be scanned again. High-speed automatic quality assessment tools for WSI will therefore greatly improve laboratory workflow. We describe here a fast method to automatically assess WSI quality, with different tests such as blurriness, contrast, b...

It comprised of 4 lectures discussing GLP biosafety equipments and safety measures to biological and radiological hazards. The series started with the lecture of Dr. Anand from IISER, Mohali over the GLP discussing the events that has happened in the cour...

The advantages of the Seligson pipette in a clinical laboratory are well known (Seligson, 1957; Saifer, Gerstenfeld, and Zymaris, 1958). It is usually attached to a burette for adding diluent. Mather (1960) modifies the stopcock of the pipette and attaches it to an automatic burette. In this laboratory, two devices have proved satisfactory in over two years' continuous service. (1) A 0.35 ml. S...

Purpose: High maintenance cost is the common issue in building industry due to low service quality of maintenance management in Malaysia. Lack of preventive measure is the problem that implicates poor maintenance performance. Scheduled maintenance is suggested to improve the maintenance performance. However, the effectiveness of scheduled maintenance can be greatly influenced by the availabilit...
