Cylinders of Type III gold alloy were sandblasted with either: 50 micron Aluminium Oxide particles (Group 1); CoJet Sand (Group 2); the CoJet System - CoJet Sand followed by application of silane primer (Group 3). Shear testing was undertaken following apposition of Panavia 21 resin. Mean shear bond strengths (+/- standard deviation) were Group 1, 32.9 (+/-18.2) MPa; Group 2, 26.5 (+/-10.8) MPa and Group 3, 45.6 (+/- 25.8) MPa. There was no statistically difference between Group 1 and 2; and between group 1 and 3. However, there was a significant; difference between Group 2 and 3 p < 0.05). While the CoJet System achieved the highest mean shear bond strength it conveyed no statistical advantage over the traditional method of sandblasting with aluminium oxide.

Objective: To evaluate the influence of different cleaning methods, surface treatments, and aging on the repair bond strength to a CAD/CAM glass-ceramic.

Materials And Methods: Forty-eight lithium disilicate CAD/CAM ceramic blocks were fabricated, sintered, and embedded in acrylic resin. After contamination with human saliva, they were divided according to the factors "Cleaning method" (Control-water/air spray, Air-particle abrasion with AlO, Ivoclean cleaning paste), "Surface treatment" (5% Hydrofluoric acid-HF + Silane, Monobond Etch & Prime-MEP), and "Aging" (thermocycling, no thermocycling).

A Mutant Complement Factor H (W1183R) Enhances Proteolytic Cleavage of von Willebrand Factor by ADAMTS13 Under Shear.

Background: A loss-of-functional mutation (W1183R) in human complement factor H (CFH) is associated with complement-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome; mice carrying a similar mutation (W1206R) in CFH also develop thrombotic microangiopathy but its plasma von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimer sizes were dramatically reduced. The mechanism underlying such a dramatic change in plasma VWF multimer distribution in these mice is not fully understood.

Objective And Methods: To determine the VWF and CFH interaction and how CFH proteins affect VWF multimer distribution, we employed recombinant protein expression, purification, and various biochemical and biophysical tools.

Polyurea (PUR) has been widely used as a protective coating in recent years. In order to complete the understanding of the relationship between PUR microstructure and its energy absorption capabilities, the mechanical and dynamic performance of PURs containing various macrodiol structural units were compared using material characterization techniques and molecular dynamic simulation. The results showed that the PUR polycarbonate diols formed as energy absorbing materials showed high tensile strength, high toughness, and excellent loss factor distribution based on the comparison of stress-strain tensile curves, glass transition temperatures, phase images, and dynamic storage loss modulus.

Aim: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effect of build orientation on the mechanical and physical properties of additively manufactured resin using digital light processing (DLP).

Background: The properties of 3D-printed materials are influenced by various factors, including the type of additive manufacturing (AM) system and build orientation. There is a scarcity of literature on the effect of build orientation on the mechanical and physical properties of additively manufactured resins using DLP technology in dentistry.
