The purpose of the present study was to evaluate how ultraviolet light (UV) irradiation using an ordinary UV sterilizer would affect the bonding of experimental composite resins to an autopolymerizing acrylic resin. To this end, three composite resins and one unfilled resin--of which the compositions were similar to commercial composite resin artificial teeth--were prepared as repair composites...

Ag2O/TiO2 nanobelt heterostructures have been found to possess high ultraviolet photocatalytic activity, but a poor cycling performance. After a S-doping treatment, the obtained Ag2O/Ag2S2O7/TiO2 heterostructured nanobelts exhibited an enhanced and stable photocatalytic activity under both ultraviolet and visible light irradiation, which was exemplified by photo-degradation of organic pollutant...

A quartz-flow-cell system for irradiation of large volumes of Escherichia coli cultures with ultraviolet light is described. With this system kilogram quantities of irradiated cells can be obtained for biochemical studies. Changes in respiration and in specific activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase, after an ultraviolet treatment that reduced viability of culture samples to 0.2%, were...

Field, A. K. (Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y.) and H. B. Naylor. Induction of lysogenic Micrococcus lysodeikticus. J. Bacteriol. 84:1129-1133. 1962.-Between 50 and 60% of log-phase cells of Micrococcus lysodeikticus strain ML 53-40, lysogenic for N5 bacteriophage, were induced by an optimal dose of ultraviolet light. Induction of dilute cell suspensions caused a subsequent 200- to 800-fold inc...

Correction for 'Chemical conversion of self-assembled hexadecyl monolayers with active oxygen species generated by vacuum ultraviolet irradiation in an atmospheric environment' by Ahmed I. A. Soliman et al., Soft Matter, 2015, 11, 5678-5687.

The study of isogenic strains of Escherichia coli K-12 carrying mutations which control filament formation after ultraviolet irradiation showed that there is not necessarily a relationship between filament formation and thymineless death.

On the assumption that photosynthesis is a cyclic process and that irradiation by ultraviolet light does not change the reaction constants, the Blackman reaction is shown to be of first order.
