statement of problem: considering the cost and amount of time and also the quantity of tooth loss in the process of cavity preparation, repair of the restoration instead of its replacement would be much more efficient. purpose: the aim of this study was to determine the effect of different methods of surface conditioning on the shear bond strength of repaired compomers. materials and methods: s...

NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) recently developed the LaRC Airborne High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL) to make measurements of aerosol and cloud distribution and optical properties. The Airborne HSRL has undergone as series of test flights and was successfully deployed on the Megacity Initiative: Local and Global Research Observations (MILAGRO) field mission in March 2006 (see Hair et a...

Effects of intra-central amygdala administration of L-arginine, a nitric oxide precursor, and NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl-ester (L NAME), a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, on the morphine-induced sensitization and also on the expression of morphine-induced place conditioning in rats were studied. Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of morphine (2.5, 5 and 7.5 mg/kg) induced place conditioning. R...

Water limitation is one of the main factors that influence germination process, affecting crop establishment. Thus, alternatives capable lessening such effects become great relevance. The aim this study was to evaluate effect ascorbic acid dosage on This aimed marandu grass seeds submitted different water conditions. After establishing immersion time for seed conditioning based soakingcurve, ex...

We hypothesized that lambs discriminate the postingestive effects of P and associate those effects with feed flavor to modify feed choices. Three predictions were tested based on this hypothesis: 1) lambs will modify preference for arbitrary flavors eaten during intraruminal infusions of NaH2PO4, 2) changes in preferences are more specific than changes in osmotic load induced by salts of Na; an...
