We have examined gross specimens of pilomatricomas, divided in half after surgical excision and have found a peculiar gross appearance that has enabled us to arrive at a correct diagnosis. The macroscopic structure of the tumor appears to conform to the scanning electron microscopic picture.

To fish-out novel salt-tolerance genes, metagenomic DNA of moderately saline sediments of India's largest hypersaline Sambhar Lake was cloned in fosmid. Two functionally-picked clones helped the Escherichia coli host to tolerate 0.6 M NaCl.

Investigate the impact of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) using different photosensitizers (PSs) such as indocyanine green (IG), curcumin (CC), and methylene blue (MB), with or without intracanal application of calcium hydroxide (CH), on the push-out bond strength of glass-fiber posts (GFPs) to intraradicular dentin, the chemical composition of the root substrate, and the sealing of the adhesive interface across different thirds of intraradicular dentin. A total of 112 bovine teeth underwent biomechanical preparation and were divided into eight experimental groups (n = 14 each): Negative control with deionized water; positive control with deionized water + CH; IG group with indocyanine green and infrared laser; IG + CH group; CC group with curcumin and blue LED; CC + CH group; MB group with methylene blue and red laser; and MB + CH group. The push-out bond strength was measured using a universal testing machine (n = 8), and scanning electron microscopy characterized the fracture patterns.

ConspectusThe discovery of reversible hydrogenation using metal-free phosphoborate species in 2006 marked the official advent of frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) chemistry. This breakthrough revolutionized homogeneous catalysis approaches and paved the way for innovative catalytic strategies. The unique reactivity of FLPs is attributed to the Lewis base (LB) and Lewis acid (LA) sites either in spatial separation or in equilibrium, which actively react with molecules.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate and compare the total and sectional bond strengths of three endodontic sealers when used with the single-cone obturation technique.
Materials And Methods: Forty-five human maxillary central incisors were prepared and divided into three groups according to the type of endodontic sealer: Group I (Gutta-percha/AH Plus Jet), group II (Gutta-percha/GuttaFlow 2), and group III (RealSeal/RealSeal SE). All canals were filled with the single-cone technique.

Aim: To assess the effect of mushrooms, ozone gas, and their combination as cavity disinfectants on the bonding strength of composite to dentin.
Materials And Methods: The study was conducted on 40 sound premolar teeth randomly divided into four groups. Group I: control group, Group II: mushroom group, Group III: Ozone group, and Group IV: mushroom + ozone gas (combination) group.
