AIMS This in vivo study aimed to assess and compare the relative clinical and radiographic success of formocresol, glutaraldehyde and ferric sulphate as medicaments following pulpotomies in primary molars at three-monthly intervals over one year. METHODS The study was carried out on 90 primary molars in 54 children aged from 3 to 9 years. Selected teeth were equally distributed and randomly a...

the silica supported platinum nanoparticles was synthesized by using the sol-gel method. the possibility of using diamminedinitro platinum (ii) as pt precursor and effect of metal precursor concentration on the final pt nanoparticle size was investigated. a stable silica sol was prepared via hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate (teos) as a metal alcoxide and condensation reaction. subsequentl...

a simple, green and efficient method for synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles is described via three-component cyclocondensation of benzil or benzoin, aldehyde and ammonium acetate by using the nano sio2-supported ferric hydrogen sulfate (fhs/sio2), as a catalyst, under solvent-free conditions. the nano sio2 support and catalyst were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmissio...

AIM The objective of this study was to compare the effects of ferric sulphate (FS) to that of the full strength of formocresol (Buckley's formula) (FC) as pulpotomy agents in primary human molar teeth 42-48 months after treatment. This was to assess the succeeding premolar teeth for decalcification, abnormal morphology or any other defect. METHODS Seventy children, ranging in age from 3 to 6 ...

Fe deficiency is a public-health problem worldwide, and effective measures for preventing Fe deficiency are needed. The aim of the present study was to determine the bioavailability of Fe in cocoa using the Hb regeneration efficiency (HRE) method. Thirty-five F344/N male weanling rats were fed a low-Fe diet for 4 weeks to deplete body Fe stores. Then, four groups of seven animals each were repl...
