To repair bone defects in the oral and maxillofacial field, bone grafts including autografts, allografts, and artificial bone are used in clinical dentistry despite several disadvantages. The purpose of this study was to evaluate new bone formation and healing in rat calvarial bone defects using hydroxyapatite (HA, Ca10[PO4]6[OH]2, Bongros, Bio@ Co., KOREA) and tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP, Ca3[...

In this study, poppy seed, which is rich in vegetable oil and protein, was added to the traditional Bey?ehir tarhana instead of wheat batter. It aimed develop a new product open field for use seeds. The physical, chemical sensory features that made with seeds, were analysed. Results study; humidity 6.75% 7.94%; as his %2.75 %3.66; salt 1.66% 1.44%; protein 16.92% 25.71%; 11.99% 24.03%; pH 4.56 ...

background: ebt and ebt3 radiochromic films have been used in radiotherapy dosimetry for years. objective: the aim of the current study is to compare ebt and ebt3 radiochromic films in dosimetry of radiotherapy fields for treatment of parotid cancer. methods: calibrations of ebt and ebt3 films were performed with identical setups using a 6 mv photon beam of a siemens primus linac. skin dose was...

BACKGROUND Capture and identification of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood system can help guide therapy and predict the prognosis of cancer patients. However, simultaneous capture and identification of CTCs with both epithelial and mesenchymal phenotypes remains a formidable technical challenge for cancer research. This study aimed at developing a system to efficiently capture and id...

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of an ophthalmic solution containing 0.1% fluorometholone (FML) and 0.1% sodium hyaluronate (HA) for the treatment of ocular dryness in Sjögren syndrome (SS) patients.Forty SS patients were randomly assigned to the FML or cyclosporin A (CsA) treatment groups. The FML group was treated with 0.1% FML and 0.1% HA, and the CsA group was treated ...

The effect of surface bond-order loss on the classical resistivity of metallic polycrystalline thin films is studied. The potential barriers due to grain boundaries considered here contain square-well depressions on both sides taking into account the effect of surface bond-order loss for the grains in a film. Electron scattering by film surfaces is also considered following the lines of Fuchs’ ...
