in order to correlation diversity assessment among the quantitative and fiber quality traits, five cultivars of tetraploid cotton (g. hirsutum) cultivars were evaluated at varamin region in 2009. in this study the populations of the cultivar lines were planted near together and 100 lines randomly were selected at the end of the season followed by measuring seed cotton yield and quantitative and...

the effects of closely adapting a prefabricated fiber to the post space remain unknown. the purpose of this study was to quantify the microleakages of a custom adapted fiber-reinforced post, a prefabricated quartz fiber post and a cast post using nondestructive methods.sixty-five extracted human premolars were endodontically treated and randomly divided into three groups (n=15), which were rest...

background and aims. bleaching may exert some negative effects on existing composite resin restorations. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of home bleaching on microleakage of fiber-reinforced and particle-filled composite resins. materials and methods. ninety class v cavities (1.5×2×3 mm) were prepared on the buccal surfaces of 90 bovine teeth. the teeth were randomly divided in...

polyvinylidene fluoride/polyvinylpyrrolidone (pvdf/pvp) hollow fiber membranes were fabricated by dry-jet wet-spinning process. the correlated effects of the air gap length and pvp concentration ((1) the air gap length effect at the low and high pvp concentration in the dope solutions, as well as (2) the effect of the pvp concentration at the same air gap length) on the cross-section structure ...

. to investigate the effect of anisometropic and strabismic amblyopia on the nerve fiber layer thickness. this cross-sectional study was done on 54 amblyopic subjects, equally in both strabismic and anisometropic groups. the thickness otonerve fiber layer measured in superior, inferior, nasal, temporal quadrants and as a whole in both eyes of both groups. the means of thickness were compared in...

color match between fiber-reinforced composite (frc) restorations and teeth is an imperative factor in esthetic dentistry. the purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of veneering composites and fibers on the color change of frc restorations.glass and polyethylene fibers were used to reinforce a direct microhybrid composite (z250, 3m espe) and a microfilled composite (gradia indirect...

membrane technology is used to separate water or solvents from salts or pollutants. this technique could be used for water treatment. for using of polyether sulfone (pes) hollow fiber membranes in water treatment processes, the pes hollow fiber membranes were prepared by dry-wet spinning method and heated in an oven at: 120°c, 150°c and 180°c. the effect of heating on performance of membranes w...
