Aim: This study compared the effectiveness of several techniques in restoring compromised bonding to recently bleached enamel.

Methods: Seventy-five healthy bovine incisors were divided into five groups (n = 15). Fifteen teeth (Group 1) remained intact, whereas 60 (Groups 2 to 5) underwent at-home bleaching with 16% carbamide peroxide.

Background: Drought is a major abiotic stress that restricts plant growth and efficiency although some nutrients such as silicon improve drought tolerance by regulating the biosynthesis and accumulating some osmolytes. In this regard, a completely randomized factorial design was performed with three factors including two genotypes ('Maragheh' and 'Kashan'), three concentrations of silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO-NPs) (0, 50, and 100 mg L), and five concentrations of PEG (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 g L) with three replications.

Results: The findings showed that drought stress decreased protein content and it was improved by SiO-NPs, so the genotype of 'Maragheh' treated with 100 mg L SiO-NPs had the highest protein content.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed how cognitive factors influence dietary weight control behaviors in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, using a TPB-based instrument and evaluating food consumption patterns.
  • Three dietary patterns emerged: healthy, mixed, and western, with subjective norms being a significant predictor of weight control behavior in the healthy and western groups.
  • The findings emphasize the importance of considering dietary patterns in weight control interventions, suggesting that strategies should focus on improving subjective norms and perceived behavioral control among women with unhealthy diets.

In this study, starch-based films incorporating metal oxide (MO ) nanoparticles (NPs) of TiO and SiO (at a concentration of 1 to 4 wt. %) were produced by solution casting method. In order to exhibit antimicrobial properties, MO NPs were modified by synthesizing silver (Ag) ions over the NPs using cationic adsorption method.

Article Synopsis
  • Leonardite-based biostimulants, like BLACKJAK (humic acid), enhance plant growth and yield by stimulating metabolic changes in plants through foliar application.
  • The study examined how different doses of BLACKJAK affect gene expression related to sugar beet growth, testing 33 genes across various pathways.
  • Results showed that 15 genes were significantly up-regulated in response to BLACKJAK, particularly those involved in mitochondrial respiration, nitrogen metabolism, and nutrient uptake, indicating a positive impact on plant growth and defense mechanisms.
