the bond strength of adhesives in irrigated dentin behaves differently over time. the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of long-term water storage and thermocycling on the microtensile bond strength of adhesive systems to dentin irrigated with endodontic solutions.sixty human molars were used after removal of the occlusal portion and exposure of the dentin by grinding. the specime...

sensitivity of tomato fruits to chilling injury limits its storage and marketability. this study investigated the effect of hot water treatment (hwt) on reducing the consequences of chilling injury (ci) with respect to quality attributes of tomatoes during storage. tomatoes were harvested at three ripening stages: mature green, pink, and red; dipped in hot water at 45°c for 15 min; and stored a...

Four different data sources have been compared with respect to observations of the annual water storage variations in the region of Bangladesh. Data from satellite altimeters and river gauges estimates the variation in surface water storage in the major rivers of Bangladesh. The GRACE satellites measure the integrated mass change and hence the terrestrial soil moisture variations, which can als...

Heuristic or intuitive rules based on experience may not be efficient when applied to the management of water supply systems that contain both surface and subsurface storage. In particular, rules that assign subsurface storage the role of a backup to surface storage do not recognize the different capabilities of surface and subsurface storage. We demonstrate how to incorporate the different cap...

[1] This study presents the first direct comparison of terrestrial water storage estimates from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission to in situ hydrological observations. Monthly anomalies of total water storage derived from GRACE gravity fields are compared with combined soil moisture and groundwater measurements from a network of observing sites in Illinois. T...

Objective. To determine the effect of lactic acid at various concentrations on the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets bonded with the resin adhesive system before and after water storage. Materials and Methods. Hundred extracted human premolars were divided into 5 treatment groups and etched for 30 seconds with one of the following agents: lactic acid solution with (A) 10%, (B) 20%, (C...

sorption isotherm and thermal properties of powders were used for determining stability during storage. garlic slices with 2 mm thickness were dried, using two methods of freeze and cabinet drying. the results showed that, the density, loss of pyruvate and color changes of the freeze dried powder were less than those of the cabinet dried powder. sorption isotherm curves of the both garlic powde...

This study evaluated the effect of 24 h (1d) and one-year (1yr) water storage on the microtensile dentin bond strength of a two-step total-etch and a two-step self-etch adhesive system. Ten extracted human third molars were sectioned perpendicularly to their long axis to expose flat occlusal dentin surfaces. Teeth were divided into two groups (n=5) according to the adhesive used: a two-step etc...
