introduction: dental pulp has neural fibers that produce neuropeptides like substance p (sp) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (cgrp). the inflammation of dental pulp can lead to an increase amount of sp and cgrp release, especially in symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. therefore, it can be assumed that neuropeptides have some role in the progression of inflammation of the dental pulp. the ai...

Dragon fruit is a popular tropical that has high phenolic content which are the main contributors to antioxidant potential and health benefits of dragon pulp peel waste. Although some compounds in have previously been reported, comprehensive analysis complete profile Australian varieties not conducted.

this study was conducted to compare the yield and strength properties of soda and kraft pulp produced from populus deltoeides sapwood and heartwood. initially fiber length, lignin content in both sapwood and heartwood were measured. then from either sapwood or heartwood pulps were prepared with using soda and kraft processes, handsheets were made from this pulp and mechanical properties were me...

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ascorbic and citric acids, blanching on stability Creole mango pulp, during freezing storage. We worked with scalded pulp (100 °C for two minutes) without blanching. Both pulps were treated acids in four combinations, packaged polyethylene bags, frozen stored at -18 90 days. During storage,the slightest browning occurred acidic not followed by pulp. Th...

In the area of photoyellowing of mechanical pulps, recently obtained experimental evidence has shown that hydroquinone/p-quinone redox couple is present in lignin-rich mechanical pulps. It was also noted that compared to a control pulp the concentration of pquinones was significantly higher in a photoyellowed pulp. Under ambient conditions, upon exposure to light, the existent pulp hydroquinone...
