INTRODUCTION This article reviews the literature pertaining to bismuth iodoform paraffin paste. OVERVIEW Bismuth iodoform paraffin paste is used in most otolaryngology departments on a daily basis. Questions about its properties are common in postgraduate otolaryngology examinations. This article reviews bismuth iodoform paraffin paste's current and historical usage, constituents, properties,...

the effects of adding nano-silica particles on the compressive strength and water permeability of concrete and its comparison with that of micro-silica were investigated in this work. the effect of combination of nano- silica and micro-silica were also studied in this work, which resulted in an increase in compressive strength of concrete in comparison with other concrete specimens tested in th...

OBJECTIVE This study determined environmental pH changes after root canal dressing using 3 types of commercial calcium hydroxide pastes. METHODS Thirty-two extracted single-rooted human premolars with 1 straight root canal were selected. Standard cavities were prepared on root surfaces. All root surfaces, excluding the cavities, were covered with nail polish. Root canals were prepared using t...

UNLABELLED Peanut skins (PS) are a good source of phenolic compounds. This study evaluated antioxidant properties and flavor of peanut paste and peanut butter enhanced with peanut skins. PS were added to both materials in concentrations of 0.0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 5.0%, 10.0%, 15.0%, and 20.0% (w/w). PS, peanut paste, and peanut butter used in the study had initial total phenolics contents of 158, 12....

In general w sed in endodontics, Ca(OH) 2 paste is composed of t owder, a vehicle, and a radiopacifier. To provide iopacity, barium sulfate (BaSO 4) powder is usual dded to the paste. In this case report, BaSO 4:Ca(OH)2 owders (ratio 1:8)...

Calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] has been widely used as short- or long-term intracanal antibacterial dressing material after endodontic treatment. In general when used in endodontics, Ca(OH)2 paste is composed of the powder, a vehicle, and a radiopacifier. To provide radiopacity, barium sulfate (BaSO4) powder is usually added to the paste. In this case report, BaSO4:Ca(OH)2 powders (ratio 1:8) and ...

Clomipramine hydrochloride, active component of an antidepressant drug, was determined in the pharmaceutical formulation by two kinds of potentiometric sensor; a PVC membrane sensor and a carbon paste electrode modified by MWCNTs and ionic liquid. Both sensors were corporated with clomipramine-tetraphenylborate ion-pair complex and they respond based on ion exchange mechanism. The best PVC memb...

The properties of graphene oxide (GO)-based cement paste can be significantly affected by the state of GO dispersion. In this study, the effects of uniformly dispersed and re-agglomerated GO on the rheological, mechanical properties and microstructure of cement paste were systematically investigated. Two distinct dispersion states can be achieved by altering the mixing sequence: Polycarboxylate...

A new modified graphite-multiwall carbon nanotube paste electrode for the determination of ascorbic acid (AA) based on cetrimonium iodide-iodine is described. The electrochemical response characteristics of the modified electrode toward AA were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in phosphate buffer solution (pH 2.0). When compared to activated carbo...

Spherical silica nanoparticles (n‐SiO2) with controllable size have been synthesized using tetraethoxysilane as starting material and ethanol as solvent by sol‐gel method. Morphology and size of the particles was controlled through surfactants. Sorbitan monolaurate, sorbitain monopalmitate and sorbitain monostearate produced silica nanoparticles of varying siz...
