Evaluation of the effect of food and beverages on enamel and restorative materials by SEM and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

Objectives: To examine different types of restorative materials used in children as well as primary and permanent teeth enamel when affected by erosive foods.

Materials And Method: Buttermilk, fruit yoghurt, Coca-cola, fruit juice, Filtek Z-250, Dyract Extra, Fuji II LC, and Fuji IX and tooth enamel were used. Measurements were performed on 1-day, 1-week, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month time periods by using ATR-FTIR technique and surface of the specimens were examined with SEM.

4-Chloro-2-[(4-chloro-benzyl-idene)amino]-phenol.

In the title Schiff base compound, C(13)H(9)Cl(2)NO, the mol-ecule displays an E conformation about the imine C=N double bond, with a dihedral angle of 8.09 (11)° between the two benzene rings. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by a single O-H⋯O hydrogen bond, giving one-dimensional chains which extend along (100).

3-Amino-4-[4-(dimethyl-amino)-phen-yl]-4,5-dihydro-1,2,5-thia-diazole 1,1-dioxide.

The title compound, C(10)H(14)N(4)O(2)S, exists in the amine tautomeric form. The dihedral angle between the benzene and thia-diazo-lidine rings is 66.54 (19)°.

Spectrophotometric flow-injection analysis of mercury(II) in pharmaceuticals with p-nitrobenzoxosulfamate.

A new, simple and rapid spectrophotometric FI method for the accurate and precise determination of Hg(II) in pharmaceutical preparations has been developed. The method is based on the measuring the decrease of absorbance intensity of p-nitrobenzoxosulfamate (NBS) due to the complexation with Hg(II). The absorption peak of the NBS, which is decreased linearly by addition of Hg(II), occurs at 430 nm in 2x10(-4) moll(-1) HNO(3) as a carrier solution.

Antimicrobial activity of some sulfonamide derivatives on clinical isolates of Staphylococus aureus.

Background: Staphylococcus aureus is a non-motile, gram positive, non-sporforming, facultative anaerobic microorganism. It is one of the important bacteria as a potential pathogen specifically for nosocomial infections. The sulfonamide derivative medicines are preferred to cure infection caused by S.

μ-Squarato-κO:O-bis-{[2-(2-amino-ethyl)pyridine-κN,N']aqua-nickel(II)} squarate 0.25-hydrate.

The asymmetric unit of title compound, [Ni(2)(C(4)O(4))(C(7)H(10)N(2))(4)(H(2)O)(2)]C(4)O(4)·0.25H(2)O, contains one-half of a squarate ligand, one-half of an uncoordinated squarate dianion, two 2-(2-amino-ethyl)pyridine ligands and one aqua ligand, all coordinated to an Ni(II) ion. The compound also contains 0.

Sodium p-nitrobenzoxasulfamate monohydrate.

The title compound, alternatively named sodium 6-nitro-3H-1,2,3-benzoxathiazole 2,2-dioxide monohydrate, Na+*C6H3N2O5S-*H2O, consists of chains of NaO7 units, with the seven donor-O atoms coming from two water molecules and five p-nitrobenzoxasulfamate anions. The seven-coordinate geometry around the Na+ ion is described as monocapped trigonal prismatic, but with a large distortion from ideal geometry. Each triangular face is defined by one O atom each from a water molecule, a nitro group and a sulfonyl group.
