Aim: To determine the effect of different concentrations and application times of tannic acid on bond strength to dentin. Materials and Methods: Occlusal surfaces of 180 human molars were randomly divided into two groups of immediate shear bond strength evaluation and evaluation after 2 months of storage in collagenase solution. Each group was divided into 10 subgroups according to the solution...

We have found several similarities between tannic acid and grain dust extract prepared with methanol. Both formed a precipitate with IgG, and these interactions were inhibited by albumin. In addition, both preparations fixed complement; this activity was heat stable and was removed by prior adsorption of the preparations with hide powder. Adsorption with polyvinyl polypyrrolidone reduced the co...

Cholera pathogenesis occurs due to synergistic pro-secretory effects of several toxins, such as cholera toxin (CTX) and Accessory cholera enterotoxin (Ace) secreted by Vibrio cholerae strains. Ace activates chloride channels stimulating chloride/bicarbonate transport that augments fluid secretion resulting in diarrhea. These channels have been targeted for drug development. However, lesser atte...

Bioassay and gene expression experiments were conducted in order to evaluate the growth and physiology of Prorocentrum minimum isolated from a eutrophic coastal water in response to tannic acid. In the bioassay experiments, variations in abundance, chlorophyll (chl) a concentration, maximum fluorescence (in vivo Fm), and photosynthetic efficiency (Fv/Fm) were measured over the course of a seven...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of tannic acid (ta) and pistachio by-product tannin extract (pbe) on n utilization and efficiency of microbial nitrogen synthesis (emns) in saanen dairy goats. the experimental design was a change over design with three treatments and three periods using six mid lactation multiparous dairy goats. tannic acid solution and pbe were added to fresh ...

The interaction between silver nanoparticles and herpesviruses is attracting great interest due to their antiviral activity and possibility to use as microbicides for oral and anogenital herpes. In this work, we demonstrate that tannic acid modified silver nanoparticles sized 13 nm, 33 nm and 46 nm are capable of reducing HSV-2 infectivity both in vitro and in vivo. The antiviral activity of ta...

BACKGROUND Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a widely-used flavor enhancer and stabilizer in ready-made or packaged foods. The excessive use of MSG has been shown to increase oxidative stress in different organ systems and causes glucose metabolism disorders, obesity, and coronary diseases. OBJECTIVES In this study, the antioxidant activity of tannic acid was investigated experimentally with resp...

In the group of chemical hepatocarcinogenic agents, the number of which has steadily increased in recent years (:$7), tannic acid deserves attention. Owing to its astringent effect, this compound was formerly used widely in therapy. The local treatment of thermal burns with tannic acid was suggested by Davidson (1935), and his procedure was generally employed in Hungary during World War II. I t...

Tannase, produced from the fungus Aspergillus flavus by submerged fermentation on different medium was studied. Tannic acid 1 had a higher activity of 70 U/g/min in purified form. The process parameter was optimized and higher production of tannase was found at 35°C and 96 hours of incubation with 2% tannic acid.
