    Notes:
    : :Iron availability from FeSO4 in samples containing sodium caseinate (SC), casein phosphopeptides (CPP) or whey protein concentrate (WPC), and from ferric citrate (Fe-CA) in samples containing SC or CPP was measured using an in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell culture model. In FeSO4 spiked samples, relative availability was CPP 〉 SC, CPP = WPC, and CPP = FeSO4 alone. In samples containing Fe-CA, a soluble iron chelate, relative availability was CPP = SC and CPP 〈 Fe-CA alone. These results suggest that CPP enhances iron availability from foods with low availability but does not improve and may inhibit availability from soluble iron species.

    Notes:
    This study is a clinical survey of cobalt–chromium (Co–Cr) removable partial denture (RPD) wearers that aimed to investigate the effects of denture wearing on oral tissues. A random sample of patients who had received their dentures 5–6 years previously from a dental teaching hospital in Hong Kong was selected. Those who had been constantly wearing the RPDs were examined by one calibrated examiner under an optimal clinical setting. The patients’ dental, periodontal and mucosal status were assessed. A total of 87 patients were examined. Mucosal lesions under the Co–Cr RPDs were uncommon in this study sample. However, there was a high prevalence of plaque, gingivitis and gingival recession, especially in dento-gingival surfaces in close proximity (within 3 mm) to the dentures. Thus, there is a special need for regular oral hygiene reinforcement, scaling and prophylaxis among RPD wearers. Despite a low caries incidence in the study sample, root caries were found to be associated with contact with the RPDs (P〈0.05) but coronal caries were not. It is recommended that coverage of the exposed root surfaces by RPD components should be avoided. Also, topical fluorides should be regularly applied onto exposed root surfaces as a preventive measure.

    Notes:
    The aim of this study was to describe the usage of cobalt–chromium (Co–Cr) removable partial dentures (RPDs) by patients 5–6 years after denture insertion and to find out the factors that affected their denture usage. A random sample of patients provided with Co–Cr RPDs from a dental teaching hospital in Hong Kong was selected. Patients were interviewed using a structured questionnaire concerning their assessment and use of the dentures. Those who had been constantly wearing their original RPDs were examined by one calibrated examiner under optimal clinical conditions. The response rate of the patients who could be contacted was 98%. The results from 189 patient interviews showed that usage of the RPDs declined with time and that half of the dentures had been discarded or replaced 5–6 years after insertion. These discarded RPDs had been in use for an average of 19·5 months. The main reason given by the patients for not using the RPDs was general dissatisfaction with the dentures in various combinations of comfort, fit and chewing ability and, less importantly, with food trapping and appearance. No statistically significant association between denture usage and their respective Kennedy classification was found. The status of the Co–Cr RPDs that had been constantly used for 5–6 years was generally good. The majority of these RPDs demonstrated fair to good cleanliness, stability and retention and had no defect of any sort.

    [Auszug] The studies reported here involve four populations of Drosophila. A laboratory wild type (+), a y mutant strain, both obtained from Turtox, and two wild type strains (No. 6 and No. 32) collected locally. The last two were selected from a larger collection of eight local populations, preliminary ...

    Notes:
    Abstract Ten polyether-urethane thermoplastic elastomers of varying chemical structure have been characterized by dielectric spectroscopy and scanning calorimetry. In the temperature range corresponding to the glass-rubber transition of the predominantly polyether phase, modification of the primary dielectric transition and the occurrence of a second transition at somewhat higher temperature have been observed. Through comparison with calorimetric data, these events have been related to supercooling of crystallizable polyether segments. Supercooling suppresses dielectric loss processes in some regimes and enhances losses in others. By systematic variation of chemical structure these phenomena have been classified.
