[Impact of chemical surface treatment of samples made of domestic zirconium dioxide on adhesive strength].

Unlabelled: Ceramic based on zirconium dioxide (ZD) is a modern, durable material for the manufacture of dentures. It is known that ZD is not etched as glass-ceramic, making it difficult to prepare this material before fixing.

Objective: To study the impact of various methods of surface treatment of ZD-based ceramic on adhesive strength.

Wound Gel with Antimicrobial Effects Based on Polyvinyl Alcohol and Functional Aryloxycyclotriphosphazene.

A silver-containing gel based on polyvinyl alcohol and aryloxycyclotriphosphazene containing -carboxyethenylphenoxy and -formylphenoxy groups has been developed. Phosphazene was synthesized via the Doebner reaction from hexakis[(4-formyl)phenoxy]cyclotriphosphazene and malonic acid and characterized by H, C, and P NMR spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The study of the gel using scanning electron microscopy showed that the gel contains open pores and can absorb wound exudate.

Polymeric Dental Nanomaterials: Antimicrobial Action.

This review aims to describe and critically analyze studies published over the past four years on the application of polymeric dental nanomaterials as antimicrobial materials in various fields of dentistry. Nanoparticles are promising antimicrobial additives to restoration materials. According to published data, composites based on silver nanoparticles, zinc(II), titanium(IV), magnesium(II), and copper(II) oxide nanoparticles, chitosan nanoparticles, calcium phosphate or fluoride nanoparticles, and nanodiamonds can be used in dental therapy and endodontics.

Crystal structure of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) tolmetin sodium.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, sodium 2-[1-methyl-5-(4-methyl-benzo-yl)-1-pyrrol-2-yl]acetate dihydrate, Na·CHNO ·2HO, contains two sodium cations, two organic anions ( and ) and two water mol-ecules. The coordination geometry around the sodium cations corresponds to a distorted octa-hedron. Each pair of sodium cations (- or -) is chelated by two bridging anions coordinated by the O atoms of the deprotonated carb-oxy-lic groups, and each sodium atom is coordinated by an O atom of a third anion, which connects pairs of sodium atoms, and a water mol-ecule.

(1,3)-3-(1-Benzo[]imidazol-2-yl)-1,2,2-tri-methyl-cyclo-pentane-1-carb-oxy-lic acid as a new anti-diabetic active pharmaceutical ingredient.

The chiral title compound, CHNO, which can be used for producing active pharmaceutical ingredients for treatment of type 2 pancreatic diabetes and other pathologies dependent on insulin resistance, was prepared from (1,3)-camphoric acid and -phenyl-enedi-amine. It crystallized from an ethanol solution in the chiral monoclinic space group. The five-membered ring adopts a twisted conformation with the methyl-substituted C atoms displaced by -0.
