Quantitative studies on the adhesive properties of transformed cells have yielded inconclusive and sometimes contradictory results. The present investigation has examined adhesive interactions between normal human fibroblasts, established as well as virus-transformed animal cell lines, and human tumour-derived cell lines by the cell-cell layer binding assay. The results of these investigations ...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of chlorhexidine (chx) application on immediate and two-month bond strength of a filled adhesive system. methods: forty eight non-carious human third molars without enamel of occlusal surface were randomly divided into two main groups according to chx application: control and chx. each main group was further subdivided into 2 subgroups depending ...

here we report a novel approach for preparation of a 6-day transdermal drug delivery system (tdds) as treatment for mild to moderate alzheimer’s disease. the spray drying method was used to prepare microparticles containing the anti-alzheimer drug. the content of the drug was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (hplc) method. the morphology and size range of the microparticles ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate biocompatibility of an etch-and-rinse adhesive system based in tertiary butanol applied in deep cavity human teeth with approximately 1 mm of remaining dentin by observing histological changes of the pulp tissue of humans at intervals of 01, 07, 14 and 21 days. Twenty third molars with indication for xtraction from patients of both sexes, presenting no syst...

OBJECTIVE This study was designed to evaluate the effects of type I collagen degradation on the durability of three adhesive systems in the early phase of dentin bonding. METHODS Bonded dentin specimens were prepared using three different types of adhesive systems. Micro-tensile bond strength and degradation of collagen were tested before, and after 1 month or 4 months of aging in artificial ...

Dental adhesive systems used for bonding dental resins to enamel and dentin have evolved through several "generations," with changes in chemistry, mechanism, number of bottles, application technique, and clinical effectiveness. The trend in the latest generation of dental bonding systems is to reduce the number of components and clinical placement steps. The introduction of i bond, a single-bot...

We tried to establish an assay system £or screening and assessment of immunoregulatory factors using whole cell cultures of mouse splenocytes and found that splenic adhesiye cells markedly increased immunogobulin (Ig) production of splenocytes. In the absence of adhesiye cells, lipopolysaccharides, pokeweed mitogen, and phytohemagglutinin stimulated the prod"ction of IgA, IgG, and IgM in a clas...

Gecko adhesion has inspired climbing robots and synthetic adhesive grippers. Distributing loads between patches of adhesive is important for maximum performance in gecko-inspired devices, but it is unknown how the gecko distributes loads over its toes. We report in vivo measurements of stress distributions on gecko toes. The results are significantly non-uniform. Gecko-inspired adhesives are se...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the microtensile bond strength of self-etch adhesive systems to dentin after storage in acids from oral biofilm. Three adhesive systems were used in the study: a two-step self-etch adhesive for use with a silorane-based resin composite (Filtek P90 adhesive system - P90), a two-step self-etch adhesive (Clearfil SE Bond - CSE) and a one-step self-etch adhesiv...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the (1) bond strength of a etch-and-rinse and self-etching adhesive systems to cavosurface enamel, (2) influence of the previous acid etching with phosphoric acid 35% to the self-etching adhesive application on bond strength values, and (3) analysis of the cavosurface enamel morphology submitted to different types of conditioning, with the use of...
