the aim of this study was to compare the effect of an acidic environment on dislocation resistance (push-out bond strength) of endosequence root repair material (errm putty and errm paste), a new bioceramic-based material, to that of mineral tri-oxide aggregate (mta).one-hundred twenty root dentin slices with standardized canal spaces were divided into 6 groups (n = 20 each) and filled with too...

corrosion makes huge economic and ecologic damage all over the world. biologic corrosion of sewer pipes is considered as a serious limitation in economic perspectives. to prevent biologic corrosive damage, lining techniques can be applied by materials and aggregate resistant to attack bacterially in sewer pipes. the role of bacteria is that they convert sulfur compounds into sulfuric acid which...

introduction: this laboratory study was performed to evaluate the effect of different acidic ph values on the push-out bond strength of calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement. methods and materials: forty-eight root dentin slices were obtained from freshly extracted single rooted human teeth and their lumen were instrumented to achieve a diameter of 1.3 mm. then, cem cement was mixed according t...

Osteoblasts (OBs) play an important role in bone fracture healing, yet the extreme adverse microenvironment in fracture sites has a negative impact on the survival of OBs. Therefore, it is important to study how OBs behave in the complex fracture microenvironment. Studies have shown that autophagy plays a pivotal role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and defending the cell against adverse mi...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the compressive strength of calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement in contact with acidic, neutral and alkaline ph values. methods and materials: the cement was mixed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, it was then condensed into fourteen split molds with five 4×6 mm holes. the specimens were randomly divided into 7 groups ( n =10) an...
