Microenvironmental studies regarding plant oxygen release in a wastewater environment are important to understand the principles of constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment. pH, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), and dissolved oxygen (DO) microprofiles for the lateral and main roots of the bulrush (Scirpus validus) in a vertical flow constructed wetland fed with municipal wastewater were...

Our understanding of plant growth in response to nitrogen (N) supply is mainly based on studies of mutants and transformants. This study explored the natural variability of Arabidopsis thaliana first to find out its global response to N availability and secondly to characterize the plasticity for growth and N metabolism among 23 genetically distant accessions under normal (N+), limited (N-), an...

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the mandibular alveolar bone thickness in untreated skeletal Class I subjects with different vertical patterns. Materials and Methods A total of 50 preorthodontic treatment cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images a Chinese population near-normal occlusion were selected. The buccal lingual thicknesses canines to second molars measured at 2 mm below cementoename...

We investigated the effects of various concentrations of diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate (DA-6) on the regeneration and growth of adventitious buds in in vitro purple coneflower cultures. Among the 3 types of explants tested, leaf explants required higher concentrations of DA-6 than petiole and root explants in order to obtain high regeneration rates, while root explants required the lowest concen...

The present study was aimed to determine the topographic relationship between root apex of the mesially and horizontally impacted mandibular third molar and lingual plate of mandible. The original cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) data of 364 teeth from 223 patients were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The topographic relationship between root apex and lingual plate on cross-sectiona...

A predictive film thickness model based on an accepted equation of state is applied to the spin-coating sub-micron poly(methylmethacrylate) viscous thin films from toluene. Concentration effects density and dynamic viscosity solution are closely examined. The calibrated with a system-specific drying rate was observed scale square root spin speed. Process mapping used generate three-dimensional ...

Background and Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate residual dentin thickness of the root and the area of the canal lumen in the coronal region of the mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canals of the lower first molars after canal preparation with the common method of using hand files and Gates Glidden drills or ProTaper rotary files, by Spiral Ct-Scan. Materials and Methods: In this exp...
