Historically, although the first indications for the use of lasers in general were in dentistry, coming as a relief from the sound of the drill and mechanical contacts, it still seems somewhat that the entry in various ways of lasers in dentistry has been slower. This is somewhat true for the situation at the continents (e.g. USA much later approved the application relative to Europe). This paper analyzes the potential and existing applications of lasers in dentistry in a wide range of existing types, including interaction with dental tissues, in terms of surgical applications, on living tissue, the prosthetic area of applications and therapeutic doses. There is another special feature that can be recognized is the precise determination of the color of the material (teeth and prosthetics) and in general the determination of the composition of the material including classic, but also modern laser techniques (LIBS, complimentary techniques, tooth tissue, bone) and especially in the case of the first Q switch systems related to pain reduction, because the short pulse favors the intervention rate (ns, ps and fs). Special attention should be paid to modeling of interaction and analysis with the appropriate software support.

While atomic absorption methods of spectrochemical analysis have found a wide range of application, they have been almost entirely confined to the analysis of solutions. Solid samples for analysis have required prior solution. In recent months the situation has been transformed, and it has been demonstrated that some important metals and alloys can be analyzed directly by atomic absorption methods, which can be applied to the precise determination of major constituents and of trace impurities.

Selection Of

Two diode-pumped tunable Nd:YAG lasers locked to sub-Doppler transitions of 127I2 and 133 Cs 2 are used as a source for two-wavelength interferometry. The synthetic wavelength, Λ=c/∆ν, is highly stable and accurate, owing to the frequency stability of the locked lasers and the precise determination of the frequency difference Δν between Cs 2 and I 2 transitions. The dense spectra of these molecules allows selection of Λ over a wide range, between 8.5 mm and several meters, thus enabling distance measurements with a large non-ambiguity range. Fringe contrast and phase-shifting methods are used to measure the phase difference. An accuracy of 70 μm is achieved for Λ~19 mm, i.e. Λ/260.

SummaryRivaroxaban is an oral, direct factor Xa inhibitor. Routine coagulation monitoring is not required, but a quantitative determination of rivaroxaban concentrations might be useful in some clinical circumstances. This multicentre study assessed the suitability of the anti-factor Xa chromogenic assay for the measurement of rivaroxaban plasma concentrations (ng/ml) using rivaroxaban calibrators and controls, and the inter-laboratory precision of the measurement. Twenty-four centres in Europe and North America were provided with sets of rivaroxaban calibrators (0, 41, 209 and 422 ng/ml) and a set of rivaroxaban pooled human plasma controls (20, 199 and 662 ng/ml; the concentrations were unknown to the participating laboratories). The evaluation was carried out over 10 days by each laboratory using local anti-factor Xa reagents as well as the centrally provided reagent, a modified STA® Rotachrom® assay. A calibration curve was produced each day, and the day-to-day precision was evaluated by testing three human plasma controls. When using the local anti-factor Xa reagents, the mean rivaroxaban concentrations (measured/actual values) were: 17/20, 205/199 and 668/662 ng/ml, and the coefficient of variance (CV) was 37.0%, 13.7% and 14.1%, respectively. When the modified STA Rotachrom method was used, the measured/actual values were: 18/20, 199/199 and 656/662 ng/ml, and the CV was 19.1%, 10.9% and 10.0%, respectively. The results suggest that, by using rivaroxaban calibrators and controls, the anti-factor Xa chromogenic method is suitable for measuring a wide range of rivaroxaban plasma concentrations (20–660 ng/ml), which covers the expected rivaroxaban plasma levels after therapeutic doses.

Nanoparticles are used in large quantities for very different applications. A precise determination of the diameter and the particle size distribution which is responsible for the application properties is therefore essential. Reliable methods for measuring the above mentioned quantities are photometric measurements and analytical ultracentrifugation with an UV optics detector. Both methods are ruled by the Mie effect, that is scattering and absorption of the particles as function of the diameter, the wavelength, and the shape of the particles. The extinction coefficients ?=?/c for spheres, rods, and core shell particles have been calculated and plotted over a wide range of the size parameter ?d/?. Two examples for multimodal latex particles and core shell particles have been given and demonstrate the applicability of the method.

A set of ICP-AES techniques has been developed for determination of rated elements: Ti, Si, R Al, Cu, Mo, V, Sn, and Zr in ferrotitanium; Ni, Fe, Cu, Co, and As in ferronickel; Si, Cr, and P in ferrochrome silicon; Zr, Si, Al, R and Cu in zirconium ferrosilicon; Mn, Si, and P in manganese ferrosilicon. Combination of the multi-element ICP-AES method which allows precise determination of the elements in ferroalloys in a wide range of concentrations and microwave sample preparation in closed autoclaves which excludes the loss of the components to be determined provides the rapidity of the analysis procedure. The composition of solutions for opening samples of ferroalloys and temperature-time modes of microwave sample preparation in an autoclave are substantiated. Conditions for ICP-AES determination of the rated elements in ferroalloys are studied. Analytical lines of the elements to be determined free from significant spectral overlaps are chosen. The dilution rates of the solutions are determined. The method of internal standard was used to improve the reproducibility of the analytical signal for Ti determination in ferrotitanium, Si and Cr in ferrochrome silicon, as well as all rated elements in manganese ferrosilicon and ferronickel. The spectrometer was calibrated using model solutions and solutions of standard samples added with the certified solutions of the elements to be determined. To determine Ti, Si, FJ Al, Cu, У and Zr in ferrotitanium; Ni, Fe, Cu, and Co in ferronickel; Si, Cr, and P in ferrochrome silicon; Zr, Si, Al, P, and Cu in zirconium ferrosilicon; Si and P in manganese ferrosilicon a multidimensional graduation by two analytical lines was used. The correctness of the determination was evaluated in analysis of standard samples of ferroalloys and comparative analysis of the obtained results with the data of standard methods: comparison of the variances according to the Fisher criterion did not reveal any significant difference between them, whereas the use of the modified Student test showed the absence of the systematic error.

Background: Sartans are mostly used as a part of combination with additional medicines in the therapy of essencial hypertension. Preferred combinations are ARB and thiazide diuretics (Hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) and Chlorthalidone (CHL)) or ARB and calcium antagonists. The number of sartans mostly prescribed by specialists is only seven - Candesartan (CDS), Eprosartan (EPS), Irbesartan (IBS), Losartan (LOS), Olmesartan (OMS), Telmisartan (TMS) and Valsartan (VLS). Methods: The widespread use of sartans in the treatment of hypertension requires reliable methods of analysis. Bulk drugs and pharmaceutical preparations should be analyzed to ensure the quality of the medicinal products reaching patients. On the other hand, the analysis of drugs in biological fluids aims to trace and improve patient care by adjusting the therapeutic doses of drugs. According to our knowledge, a review devoted to the analysis of sartans was published in 2014. Results: Spectral methods are widely used in the analysis of bulk drugs and pharmaceutical dosage forms due to their relatively simple procedures, low reagent and sample consumption, speed, precision and accuracy combined with accessibility and comparatively low cost of common apparatus. Many papers for determination of sartans in bulk drugs and pharmaceutical preparations based on liquid chromatographic techniques were published in the available literature. Among these methods, HPLC takes the leading place but UPLC and HPTLC are also present. Conclusion: The widespread use of sartans in the treatment of hypertension requires reliable methods of analysis. Bulk drugs and pharmaceutical preparations should be analyzed to ensure the quality of the medicinal products reaching patients. On the other hand, the analysis of drugs in biological fluids aims to trace and improve patient care by adjusting the therapeutic doses of drugs. Since 2014, many articles have been published on the sartans analysis and this provoked our interest to summarize the latest applications in the analysis of sartans in pharmaceutical formulations and biological media. Articles published from 2014 to 2018 are covered.
