in order to study the distribution of argasidae family ticks and the role of o.tholozani in transmitting the relapsing fever agent in rural areas of central province, an investigation was carried out from june to november 1992. in this study, 3371 specimens from 70 villages were collected by simple sampling method technique and subsequently were identified in laboratory. the results showed that...

This study investigated the flexural strength of eight fiber posts (one carbon fiber, one carbon/quartz fiber, one opaque quartz fiber, two translucent quartz fiber, and three glass fiber posts). Eighty fiber posts were used and divided into eight groups (n = 10): G1: C-POST (Bisco); G2: AESTHETI-POST (Bisco); G3: AESTHETI-PLUS (Bisco); G4: LIGHT-POST (Bisco); G5: D.T. LIGHT-POST (Bisco); G6: P...

background: glass and quartz fiber posts are used in restoration of structurally compromised roots. accessory fiber posts are recently introduced to enhance the fiber post adaptation. this study evaluated the effectiveness of glass versus quartz accessory fiber posts. materials and methods: in this experimental study, 40 mandibular premolar roots with similar dimension (radius of 3.5 ± 0.2 mm a...

CYTOP fiber, used mainly in strain detection and refractive index characterization of liquids, can be polished for the UV light radiation. The study investigates transmission spectra fiber exposed to different intensities light, demonstrating a linear relationship. A simplified system using single wavelength, 395 nm, shows real-time performance sensor range from 1 15 mW. results reveal potentia...
