In the article the possibilities of new methods of diagnosis of periodontal diseases in teenagers are characterized. A hygienic condition of the oral cavity was evaluated by the use of the intraoral camera Durr Dental’s Vista Proof (Germany). The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to detect DNA of pathogenic periodontal bacteria in dental plaque. It was found that the increase in the...

Pre-implant disease is an inflammatory process that affects the surrounding tissues of a functional osseointegrated implant. It is usually the result of a disequilibrium between the micro-flora and the defense system. This case reports a 57-year-old man with unusual bone loss around dental implants. This was an unusual case of peri-implantitis that occurred only in the implants on one side of t...

Food colors are considered the most important component of foodstuff for enhancing aesthetic appeal products. The rapid increase in population raised demand food materials, while wastewater from as-related processing industries is used irrigation. This study was conducted to examine genotoxicity industrial on plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Three predominantly synthetic colors, inc...

The occurrence of Festuca trichophylla subsp. trichophylla in the flora of Croatia is confirmed. In June 1999 a small population was found on the edge of ^epi} polje, near the village of [u{njevica (Istria) growing on a relatively moist calcareous meadow belonging to the order Scorzoneretalia. The soil is weakly basiphillous with high amount of CaCO3. According to the present state of knowledge...

With the newly arisen ecological awareness in the agriculture the sustainable use and development of the land is getting more important. With the sustainable use of soil in mind, we are developing a decision support system that helps making decisions on managing agricultural systems and is able to handle both conventional and genetically modified crops as a part of the ECOGEN project. The decis...

Streptococci related to Streptococcus sanguis were shown to represent a major segment of the bacterial flora of certain soils. Upon initial isolation, these streptococci were quite pleomorphic and displayed morphological characteristics common to several other genera of bacteria, but after prolonged cultivation on laboratory media the isolates demonstrated a typical streptococcal morphology. It...

A survey based study was planned in North Eastern Ghat (NEG) of Odisha to analyse the mineral profile of soil, feed, fodder and serum of dairy cattle. This agro-climatic zone comprises of four districts namely Kandhamal, Ganjam, Raygada and Gajapati. Amongst those two districts viz Ganjam and Gajapati are taken for the study considering the density of dairy cattle population. In the similar man...

The subsurface wastewater infiltration system (SWIS) receives the effluent pretreated in the septic tank and purifies it through biological, physical, and chemical reactions as it passes through the unsaturated soil to the ground water. An important component of the infiltration system is the biomat, a layer of organic and inorganic material and bacteria that forms at the interface between the ...
