This discussion piece argues for a refinement in our understanding of prevention in sexual abuse, suggesting that we include quaternary prevention on the grounds that this concept from medical literature has potential and helpful application to criminal justice and particularly to work with those who cause sexual harm. Located within the paradigm of Epidemiological Criminology (EpiCrim), quaternary prevention extends the prevention spectrum to enable a stronger distinction between tertiary level responses and long-term safe, sustainable reintegration into communities, particularly of those who sexually abuse others. The key principles of quaternary prevention are adapted and refined from current medical literature, and the potential usefulness of quaternary prevention to crime and sex abuse prevention is explored.

Silver and Fluoride Release from Silver Diammine Fluoride-Treated Caries Lesions.

The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the release of silver and fluoride ions from caries lesions treated with silver diammine fluoride (SDF), with and without using a light-emitting diode (LED) curing light, the use of which increases silver penetration into the lesion. Eighteen extracted primary molars with natural caries lesions were divided into four groups: (1) one-minute SDF (n equals six); (2) 40-second SDF + 20-second LED (n equals six); (3) untreated control (n equals three); and (4) 20-second LED control (n equals three). Samples were immersed in artificial saliva for 0.

SALMONELLA: as an important food-borne zoonotic pathogen, is found in soil and processing environment by human or animal feces, causing serious public health problems. Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) disinfectants are widely used in hospitals, livestock farms and food processing sites because of their low toxicity and broad-spectrum disinfection. However, sub-lethal levels of QACs disinfectants can induce bacteria to develop tolerance to disinfectants and cross-resistance to other antimicrobial agents.

The surfaces of underwater ship hulls and aquaculture equipment, such as fish cages, are highly susceptible to damage from fouling organisms. Although traditional marine antifouling coatings exhibit effective antifouling properties, the leaching of antifouling agents into the marine environment can lead to pollution and ecological disruption. In this study, we prepared castor oil polyurethane (CO-PU) by reacting castor oil with isocyanate.

The use of biodiesel as an alternative to diesel remains controversial because of its potential impact on organic matter emissions. Herein, intermediate-volatility organic compounds (IVOCs) from five agricultural machines (AMs) using three types of fuels (pure diesel (B0), diesel mixed with 5 and 20% biodiesel (B5 and B20), respectively) were collected and analyzed. The following results were obtained: (1) Reasonable biodiesel ratios reduced IVOC emissions.
