Purpose: To investigate the effect of two crown metal alloys with different roughness on the adhesion of predominant subgingival bacteria.

Methods: Au- Pt alloy and Ni-Cr alloy with different roughness were attached to the Ti implant material and incubated under anaerobic condition. The adhesion of four subgingival predominant bacteria: Porphyromanus gingivalis(Pg), Actinobacillus actinomycet-emcomitans (Aa), Prevotella intermedia (Pi) and Fusobacterium nuclertum (Fn), was detected, respectively. The quantity of bacteria clones on the different surface was counted by means of clone forming unit (CFU) method, and the shape and the growth characteristics of adhered bacteria were observed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The date was analyzed using SPSS13.0 software package.

Results: The amounts of the four subgingival predominant bacteria adhered to rougher surface of same alloy samples increased significantly (P<0.01), and the amount of bacteria adhered to the surface of Au-Pt alloy samples was much more than that to alloy Au-Pb samples with the same roughness (P<0.01).

Conclusions: The effect of Au-Pt alloy is significantly greater than Au-Pb alloy to the adhesion of bacteria. The amount of bacteria adhered to rougher surface of same alloy samples is more than those to smooth one.

Bond strength between repair and restorative materials is crucial for endodontic success. This study assessed the effects of the following final irrigation solutions on the bond strength of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) to a bulk-fill composite: (1) 17% Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA); (2) 2% Chlorhexidine (CHX); (3) 0.2% chitosan; (4) 0.

Background: Xenogeneic transplantation induces acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) and subsequent vital organ damage. Herein, we aimed to examine hepatic damage associated with aGvHD using histopathology and gene expression profiles.

Methods: A xenografic GvHD model was established by engrafting human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) into immunodeficient NOD-scid IL2Rγnull (NSG) mice after busulfan conditioning.

Effect of heat treatment on tribological behavior of direct metal laser sintered alloy 718.

iScience

December 2024

AU-Sophisticated Testing and Instrumentation Centre (STIC) and Department of Mechanical Engineering, Alliance School of Applied Engineering, Alliance University, Bengaluru 562106, India.

The main aim of this work is to enhance the wear performance of the direct metal laser sintered (DMLS) alloy 718 by solution treatment aging (STA) method at room temperature (RT) (28°C) and 400°C in dry sliding conditions. The effect of microstructure, phase analysis, and microhardness on the wear behavior and the influence of STA on the specimen at elevated temperatures were studied. The microstructure revealed the presence of melt pool boundary (MPB) in untreated DMLS alloy while recrystallized grains were observed in the STA-treated alloy.

Background: Tumor is a complex and dynamic ecosystem formed by the interaction of numerous diverse cells types and the microenvironments they inhabit. Determining how cellular states change and develop distinct cellular communities in response to the tumor microenvironment is critical to understanding cancer progression. Tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) are an important component of the tumour microenvironment and play a crucial role in cancer progression.
