Ameloblastic fibroma with extensive dentinoid - A rare presentation.

Ameloblastic fibroma (AF) is a rare benign odontogenic tumour first described by Kruse in 1891. Although reported in a wide age range, most of the cases are seen in the first two decades of life with majority of cases being diagnosed before the age of 20 years. There are reported variations in the histopathological presentation of ameloblastic fibroma.

Metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma of the oral cavity - A report of two cases.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide that is etiologically linked to a previous hepatitis B infection. We describe two cases of HCC metastasis to the oral cavity in 60- and 67-year-old male patients. The first case was a diffuse, hard swelling in the left body of the mandible.

Development and characterization of an LDPE/chitosan composite antimicrobial film for chilled fish storage.

An antimicrobial packaging material was developed by uniformly embedding 1, 3 and 5% chitosan (w/w) in low density polyethylene matrix using maleic anhydride grafted LDPE as a compatible agent. The materials were mixed by compounding and blown into monolayer films via blown film extrusion. The developed films showed good barrier properties against oxygen.
