Vitality of dental pulp is essential for long-term tooth survival. The aim of vital pulp therapy is to maintain healthy pulp tissue by eliminating bacteria from the dentin-pulp complex. There are several different treatment options for vital pulp therapy in extensively decayed or traumatized teeth. Pulp capping or pulpotomy procedures rely upon an accurate assessment of the pulp status, and car...

ABSTRACT - Vermicomposting with pomegranate pulp can not only prevent pollution of the environment but can also create jobs, generate added value and prevent the waste of energy and the country's capital. This factorial experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design. The first factor (a) in two levels contained neutralized pomegranate pulp with lime and non-neutralized pulp. The sec...

Abstract The goal of this paper is to model the pulp properties fiber length, shives width and freeness. This will be done utilizing specific energy, flat zone inlet consistency internal variables, consistencies residence times estimated from refining soft sensors. models are designed using more than 3600 hours data a RGP82CD refiner. sampled measurement device positioned after latency chest. S...

Maintaining deciduous teeth in function until their natural exfoliation is absolutely necessary. Vital pulp therapy (VPT) is a way of saving deciduous teeth. The most important factors in success of VPT are the early diagnosis of pulp and periradicular status, preservation of the pulp vitality and proper vascularization of the pulp. Development of new biomaterials with suitable biocompatibility...

Xylan extracts from southern US hardwood were used for the adsorption of both hardwood and softwood pulp. Pulp beatability and physical strength properties were determined and compared with those of the conventional Kraft pulp and pre-extracted modified Kraft pulp. The results indicated that hemicelluloses adsorption greatly improved pulp beatability. Compared to conventional Kraft pulp, a sign...

Dehydrated citrus pulp and citrus pulp-protein supplements were evaluated as potential supplements for a preconditioning program. The supplements compared were no supplement, citrus pulp alone, citrus pulp with urea, and citrus pulp with added UIP. Supplemented cattle produced greater gains than unsupplemented cattle. Citrus pulp with added UIP produced the greatest ADG (0.95 lb/hd/d) whereas c...

Thermophilic mannanase from the Bacillus sp. MG-33 was applied on wheat straw-rich-soda pulp to evaluate its bleaching potential. Optimum conditions for bio-bleaching of pulp were found as, mannanase 3Ug -1 of pulp at pH 6.5 and temperature 65oC that enhanced the brightness by 30% and reduced the kappa number by 20% within 2h. Tear index (1.1, points) and burst index (0.02, points) were also im...

This paper reports on the influence of independent variables in the ethylene glycol/soda pulping of olive wood trimmings [viz. cooking temperature (165–195°C) and time (30–90 min), ethylene glycol concentration (5–15%), soda concentration (2.5–7.5%), and liquid/solid ratio (4/1–6/1)], on the yield and viscosity and holocellulose, -cellulose, and lignin contents of the pulps. By using a central ...
