Objective: To evaluated the effect of curing modes and light-cure times on knoop hardness (KH) and microtensile bond strength (µTBS) of dentin adhesives in vitro.
Methods: Twenty molars were made into 80 dentin slices (about 1 mm thick). The dentin slices were prepared with an etch&rinse adhesive A (ONE-STEP PLUS) and a self-etch adhesive B (Clearfil SE Bond), and light-cured respectively under fast mode, i.e.1250 mW/cm(2) light intensity for 10 s, 15 s, 20 s, and ramp mode (soft start curing mode), i.e.initial 0 mW/cm(2) gradually increasing to 1250 mW/cm(2) in first 10 s, then steady for the next 10 s. The prepared dentin slices were kept in dark dry room for 24 h at 37°C, and KH were tested. The other 40 molars were flattened to expose coronal dentin, prepared with adhesives as above. Then the prepared teeth were restored with resin composites incrementally and cured under fast mode. The restored teeth were stored in water for 24 h at 37°C, and slowly sectioned to obtain multiple bonded beams. After 7 d water-storage, the samples received microtensile bond test, and the failure models of beams were observed under a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and LSD test (α = 0.05).
Results: No statistical difference in KH [(28.20 ± 5.36), (29.13 ± 5.60), (28.13 ± 4.40), (27.06 ± 3.77) MPa] and µTBS [(22.30 ± 5.07), (22.73 ± 6.59), (26.32 ± 6.17), (25.67 ± 4.31) MPa] of adhesive A were found between four curing conditions (fast mode for 10 s, 15 s, 20 s and ramp mode for 20 s) (P > 0.05). In adhesive B, KH of Fast 20 s [(28.23 ± 3.67) MPa] were significantly higher than those of Fast 10 s [(14.15 ± 2.24) MPa] and Fast 15 s [(17.63 ± 2.17) MPa] (P < 0.05). The µTBS of Fast 20 s [(42.52 ± 3.59) MPa] were significantly higher than those of Fast 10 s [(24.21 ± 3.60) MPa], Fast 15 s [(22.25 ± 4.16) MPa] and Ramp 20 s [(31.12 ± 5.40) MPa] (P < 0.05). In Fast 20 s and Ramp 20 s modes, there were no statistical difference in KH of adhesive A and B, while µTBS of adhesive B were higher than that of adhesive A(P < 0.05).
Conclusions: As for different type dentin adhesives, the appropriate curing time in fast mode is different, and ramp mode (soft start curing mode) has no advantage over fast mode.

As the most common and lethal cancer of the female gonads, ovarian cancer (OC) has a grave impact on people's health. OC is asymptomatic, insidious in onset, difficult to diagnose and treat, fast-growing, and easy to metastasize and has poor prognosis and high mortality. How to detect OC as early as possible and treat it without side effects has become a challenging medical problem.

We present a implementation method of light-sheet microscopy utilizing a highly miniaturized device that produces light-sheet illumination while immersed in the sample container. Our miniaturized plane illuminator (MPI) internally equips a two-axis beam-scanning mechanism based on a magnetostatically driven optical fiber cantilever. A light sheet is produced by fast scanning of the focused beam in an axis while the illumination plane can move in the other axis for positioning and 3D imaging.

Latency in flux observation has an adverse effect on the performance of observer-based field-oriented speed control for three-phase induction motor (IM). The reduction of the convergent rate of estimation errors could improve the performance of speed-controlled IM based on flux observers. The main contribution is to design a fast convergent flux observer, which provides bounded estimation error immediately after one instant of motor startup.
