Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupplementation with Different Concentrations of Dithiothreitol and Glutathione During Cryopreservation of Semen from Large White BoarsMahlatsana Ramaesela Ledwaba, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.The study aims to compare different concentrations (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 mM) of antioxidants, Dithiothreitol (DTT) and Glutathione (GSH), on sperm parameters following the freeze-thawing of semen from large white boars. Three large white boars were selected for semen collection and the collected semen was sent to the lab for analysis. Following dilution with Beltsville thawing solution and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 3 Jun 2024 · 5,517 accessesView PDF Cite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractSegmental Mandibular Resection for Conventional AmeloblastomaGeorges Abi Khalil, Georges Aoun, Banine Khalifeh, Toni ZeinounAmeloblastoma is an aggressive slow growing benign epithelial odontogenic tumor usually associated with an unerupted third molar. In this report, we present the case of a 71-year-old male with a large swelling on the left mandibular region causing a remarkable facial asymmetry. After clinical, radiological and histopathological examinations the diagnosis of conventional ameloblastoma was made. To avoid probable recurrence our … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 28 Oct 2021 · 6,586 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControlled Release Behaviors of Tribenuron Methyl Herbicide and Potassium Nitrate Fertilizer from Natural Polymer Blended Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Hydrogel MicrospheresFawzi Habeeb Jabrail, Wajeeh Mohammed Jamil, Maher Zeki Elsabee, Kailash Chandra GuptaPolyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) hydrogel microspheres for controlled release of fertilizer (KNO3) and Tribenuron Methyl Herbicide (TBM) were prepared by blending the naturally occurring Alginate (AL) and Pectin (PE). The cross-linking in PVA hydrogel microspheres was carried out by varying the amount of glutaraldehyde from 0.5-1.0 wt%. To control the loading and release properties of PVA hydrogel microspheres, a small amount … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 13 Jul 2019 · 7,673 accessesView PDF Cite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractActinomyces Odontolyticus with Klebsiella and Bacteroides Presenting as Facio-Cervical Abscess with Extension to Scalp and no Sinus TractTanveer Mir, Anita Choudhary, Anshu Wadehra et al.Actinomycosis is a rare infectious bacterial disease caused by various Actinomyces species. Being very rare, Actinomyces is easily misdiagnosed. Actinomyces are common commensals of the oral cavity which predispose to local infections. We report a case of a 67-year-old female who initially presented with swelling of the left sided face which later on proved to be a mixed infection with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2019 · 7,241 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNear Critical Carbon Dioxide Sorption Induced Crystallization in PETAversa Raffaella, Apicella AntonioNear critical carbon dioxide sorption equilibria at 50°C and pressures up to 40 atms are analyzed and interpreted on the basis of the multiple sorption mechanisms possible in a glassy amorphous and semi crystalline polymer. Varying the penetrant-polymer testing temperature and external pressure it is possible to meet the full range of possible sorption behavior, from ideal Fickian diffusion to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Jun 2016 · 8,006 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUncertainty Impact of the Effective Diffusion Coefficient on the Concrete Chemical DegradationA. BadaouiReinforced concrete is the construction material widely used in civil engineering. However, knowledge of its long-term performance and the uncertain impact of the environment on his behaviour make it difficult to accurate assessment of the durability of structures with time. When a structure is put into service, it is likely to damage, which origin can be physical, mechanical or chemical. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 7,758 accessesView PDF Cite

HypothesisOpen accessIn the abstractIncreased Tissue Pressure Induces Demyelinated Lesions and Necroses in the BrainHelmut Barz, Ulrich Barz, Almut SchreiberA general brain edema increases the size of the brain tissue and stretches the elastic neuronal and glial fibers. Myelinated fibers are more elastic than unmyelinated fibers. The stretching of the neuronal fibers leads particular in regions of the white matter or areas surrounded by myelinated fiber tracts to an increased tissue pressure. This physical principle can be the reason … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2015 · 7,424 accessesView PDF Cite
