Controlled fermentation processes have high potential for improving coffee quality. The effect of temperature on beverage quality was investigated with cultivated at elevations between 1166 and 1928 m. A completely randomized design carried out five elevation ranges 200 m intervals in farms per range, two temperatures (15 °C 30 °C), which were maintained a temperature-controlled bioreactor. Eac...

The discussion of Claudio Borio’s and Franklin Allen’s papers left me thinking that history has not been kind to the Wallis Committee of Inquiry into the Australian Financial System. It would appear that banks complement fi nancial markets, rather than substitute for them, to a far greater extent than assumed by the Committee. This even led to speculation that the Wallis architecture of creatin...

Tropical biologists study the richest and most endangered biodiversity in the planet, and in these times of climate change and mega-extinctions, the need for efficient, good quality research is more pressing than in the past. However, the statistical component in research published by tropical authors sometimes suffers from poor quality in data collection; mediocre or bad experimental design an...

To evaluate the effect of a tailored behavior change program on a composite lifestyle change score. A randomized controlled trial conducted in Belgium in 2007-08 with 314 participants allocated to a control and an intervention condition. The intervention was a tailored behavior change program (web-based and individual coaching). The dose of the coaching was chosen by the participants and regist...

Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare the physical, mechanical, and biocompatibility properties of a new dual-cure white mineral trioxide aggregate (D-W-MTA) and a commercial W-MTA. Materials and Methods Diametral tensile strength (DTS), water sorption (WSp), and water solubility (WSl) tests were performed. Cytotoxicity was observed in primary culture of human pulp fibroblasts (HPFs...

AIMS To evaluate the influence of mechanical surface treatment and chemical primer application on the composite shear bond strength to zirconia. METHODS Eighty blocks of Lava Frame Zirconia were randomly assigned to the experimental groups, according to the several possible combinations between mechanical (untreated/aluminum oxide sandblast) and chemical treatment (no primer/Monobond Plus/Exp...
