The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of phenolic extract derived from olive vegetation water (PEOVW) in deep-water rose shrimps (Parapenaeus longirostris) at the day of packaging (D0) and after three (D3), six (D6) and eight (D8) days of refrigerated storage. Freshly caught shrimps were randomly divided into four groups: the phenolic extract (PE) group (2 g/L of phenols); the sulfites (S) group (0.5% sodium metabisulfite solution); the phenolic extract + sulfites (PE + S) group (0.25% sodium metabisulfite solution with 1 g/L of phenols), and the control (CTRL) group (tap water). Concerning color coordinates, there were no variations either between groups or over time, while it is important to highlight that phenolic extract (PE group) led to a significant reduction in total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N; p < 0.001) and thiobarbituric reactive substances (TBARS; p < 0.001) values. Furthermore, PE also had a relevant effect in reducing bacterial counts and decreasing the microbial development. Finally, as concerns melanosis, the effect of phenolic extract alone was marginal, but when combined with half a dose of sodium metabisulfite, it was as effective as the shrimps treated with only sodium metabisulfite in delaying black spots (p < 0.05). These results are very promising with a view to commercializing additive-free shrimps.

The focus of this study was to assess the quality traits and sensory profile of cooked rose shrimps (Parapenaeus longirostris) treated with a phenolic extract, derived from olive vegetation water (PEOVW). To achieve the aim, four different groups of shrimps were analysed, specifically the control (CTRL) group, where the shrimps were soaked in tap water; sulphites (S) group with shrimps soaked in 0.5% sodium metabisulfite tap water solution, phenolic extract (PE) group where a tap water solution containing 2 g/L of phenols was used; and PE+S group where the shrimps were dipped in 0.25% sodium metabisulfite tap water solution containing 1 g/L of phenols. The groups were then stored at 2 °C and analysed on the day of packaging (D0), after 3 (D3), 6 (D6), and 8 (D8) days. On each group, microbiological parameters such as Enterobacteriaceae, mesophilic and psychrotrophic bacteria, and colorimetric indices were investigated on six (n = 6) shrimps before cooking, while the evolution of the phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and sensory analysis during the storage period were evaluated on cooked shrimps. Regarding colour coordinates, there were no noteworthy variations overtime nor between groups, while it is important to note that the microbiological results for the PE group showed at each time interval and for all the considered parameters, significantly lower values than the other groups (p < 0.05). This result is very interesting when considered further in correlation with the sensory analysis, where shrimps mainly in PE and secondarily in PE+S groups were shown to retain the freshness characteristics better than the other groups (α = 0.01), without giving the shrimps any particularly bitter and pungent sensations typical of the olive phenolic compounds. In conclusion, the results obtained in this study give PEOVW the potential to be valorised in the food sector and, above all, it could represent a sustainable solution to reduce the use of synthetic additives.

Abstract The prognosis of IDH1 wild type MGMT promotor unmethylated (MGMT-p-UM) GBM patients remains poor. Addition of TMZ to radiotherapy shifted the median OS from 11.8 to 12.6 months (Stupp, Lancet Oncol 2019). We retrospectively analysed the value of individualized multimodal immunotherapy (IMI) to improve OS in these patients. Adults with first event of IDH1wt GBM and documented status of MGMT-p-UM, and treated with IMI in the period June 2015 till July 2020, were selected. IMI consisted of 1/ immunogenic cell death (ICD) therapy (NDV injections + modulated electrohyperthermia), 2/ active specific immunotherapy with autologous mature dendritic cells loaded with tumor lysate or ICD therapy-induced serum-derived antigenic extracellular microvesicles and apoptotic bodies (IO-Vac® is an approved advanced therapy medicinal product since 27/05/2015), 3/ modulatory immunotherapy adapted to the patient, and 4/ complementary medicines. Twenty-eight patients (11f, 17m) had a median age of 48y (range 18-69) and a KPI of 90 (50-100). Extent of resection was complete (11), &lt; complete (9) or not documented (8). Seven patients were treated with surgery/radio(chemo)therapy and subsequent IMI (Group-1); 21 patients were treated with radiochemotherapy followed by maintenance TMZ + ICD therapy, followed by DC vaccines (Group-2). Both groups received further maintenance ICD therapy. Age, KPI and extent of resection were not different amongst both groups. PFS was not assessed because of challenges about pseudoprogression. The median OS of group-1 patients was 11m (2y OS: 0%). Surprisingly the median OS of group-2 patients was 18m with 2y OS of 17% (CI95%: +31, -15), which was significantly (Log-rank: p = 0.027) different from group-1. The data suggest that addition of IMI after local therapy on its own has no relevant effect on OS in IDH1 wild type MGMT-p-UM GBM patients, similar to maintenance TMZ. However, the combination of both TMZ + IMI significantly improves median OS.

The Stability

В настоящее время известны основные причины формирования различных видов помутнений в спиртных напитках виноградного происхождения. В значительной степени изучены компоненты образующихся при этом осадков. Вместе с тем одна из часто возникающих проблем современного производства заключается в потере стабильности продукции при транспортировании и хранении, что влечет дополнительные расходы предприятий по возврату и технологическим обработкам забракованной продукции. Целью настоящей работы стало сравнительное исследование минерального состава обработанных коньяков и их стабильности к различным видам помутнений. Объекты исследований - образцы обработанных коньяков отечественного производства, которые были разделены в зависимости от возраста на четыре группы: 1 группа - 3-летние, 4-летние и 5-летние; 2 группа - выдержанные «КВ» и выдержанные высшего качества «КВВК»; 3 группа - старые «КС», 4 группа - очень старые «ОС». На 1-м этапе было проведено исследование физико-химических и органолептических показателей продукции. В результате установлено, что все образцы соответствовали требованиям ГОСТ 31732-2014. Тесты на склонность к различным видам помутнений показали стабильность образцов к обратимым коллоидным, белковым и кальциевым помутнениям. Установлено, что качественный состав минеральных веществ обработанных коньяков различного возраста идентичен. При этом массовая концентрация отдельных компонентов варьирует в широком диапазоне. Доля образцов обработанных коньяков, в которых были превышены уровни концентраций отдельных ионов, гарантирующих стабильность продукции, составила в среднем 15%. Сравнительный анализ количественного состава катионов и анионов в обработанных коньяках дает основание предположить, что образцы с высоким содержанием ионов Са2+, Na+ и SO42- имеют высокий риск потери стабильности в дальнейшем. Таким образом, результаты проведенных исследований показали необходимость совершенствования методики определения склонности коньяков к различным видам помутнений в части расширения контролируемых показателей. Currently, the main reasons for the formation of various types of turbidity in alcoholic beverages of grape origin are known. The components of the precipitation formed during this process have been studied to a large extent. At the same time, one of the frequently occurring problems of modern production is the loss of product stability during transportation and storage, which entails additional costs for enterprises to return and process rejected products. The purpose of this work was a comparative study of the mineral composition of processed cognacs and their stability to various types of turbidity. The objects of research were samples of processed cognacs of domestic production, which were divided depending on age into four groups: group 1 - three-year-old, four-year-old and five-year-old; group 2 - aged «KV» and aged of the highest quality «KVVK»; group 3 - old «KS», group 4 - very old «OS». At the first stage, a study of the physico-chemical and organoleptic parameters of the products was carried out. As a result, it was found that all samples met the requirements of GOST 31732-2014. Tests for the propensity to various types of turbidity showed the stability of the samples to reversible colloidal, protein and calcium turbidity. It is established that the qualitative composition of the minerals of processed cognacs of different ages is identical. At the same time, the mass concentration of individual components varies in a wide range. The share of samples of processed cognacs in which the concentration levels of individual ions guaranteeing the stability of products were exceeded averaged 15%. A comparative analysis of the quantitative composition of cations and anions in processed cognacs suggests that samples with a high content of Ca2+, Na+ and SO42- ions have a high risk of loss of stability in the future. Thus, the results of the conducted studies have shown the need to improve the methodology for determining the propensity of cognacs to various types of turbidity in terms of expanding the controlled indicators.

The Stability

In this study amphoteric cryogels were synthesized by the use of free-radical co-polymerization of acrylate-based precursors (methacrylic acid and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propansulfonic acid) with allylamine at different ratios. The physico-chemical characteristics of the cryogels were examined using SEM/EDX, FT-IR, XPS and zeta potential measurements. The cryogels were tested toward Cd2+ removal from aqueous solutions at various pH and initial concentrations. Equilibrium studies revealed a maximum sorption capacity in the range of 132–249 mg/g. Leaching experiments indicated the stability of Cd2+ in the cryogel structure. Based on kinetics, equilibrium and characterization results, possible removal mechanisms are proposed, indicating a combination of ion exchange and complexation of Cd2+ with the cryogels’ surface functional groups. The cryogels were compared to commercially available adsorbents (zeolite Y and cation exchange resin) for the removal of Cd2+ from various water matrices (ultrapure water, tap water and river water) and the results showed that, under the experimental conditions used, the cryogels can be more effective adsorbents.

Increased Susceptibility

The subject of the work is the analysis and assessment of the risk of biological instability of water. The lack of water stability causes the increased susceptibility of the distribution system to secondary microbial contamination of water and constitutes a hazard for consumers’ health. The risk is expressed as the loss of water supply safety and distinguishes a failure of not meeting certain water quality parameters that can influence physico-chemical parameters and the bacteriological quality of the water supplied to the consumers. In the paper the method of analysing and evaluating the risk of loss of biostability of tap water is presented. The presented analysis was performed on the basis of the operating data from the water treatment plant.

Abstract Statement of the Problem Several techniques are proposed for the restoration of Class V cavities but there is no agreement in the literature as to which technique is more effective. Purpose To evaluate the effect of different techniques of composite increment placement on the marginal adaptation of Class V restorations. Methods and Materials Twenty-four human molars were selected and prepared with standardized saucershaped cavity dimensions of 3.0 mm (occlusal-gingival), 2.0 mm (mesial-distal), and 2.0 mm (depth). The margins are in reference to the cemento-enamel junction with 1.5 mm being located on enamel and 1.5 mm on dentin. The cavities were randomly assigned into three groups (n=8) and restored with composites as follows: Group 1, the occlusal increment was placed and cured first followed by the gingival increment; Group 2, the gingival increment was placed and cured first followed by the occlusal increment; and Group 3, the cavities were restored with one bulk increment. Restorations were immediately finished and stored for 24 h in tap water. Specimens were subjected to thermocycling (1000 cycles, 5°C to 55°C, 30 s dwell time) and immersed in 0.5% basic fuchsin solution for 24 h in room temperature. After rinsing with running water, the restorations were sectioned longitudinally and enamel and dentin margins were evaluated and scored according to the microleakage on a 0-3 scale. Data were subjected to Kruskal-Wallis test at p<0.05. Results Median of microleakage scores for all evaluated groups was zero. No statistical difference was observed among the three groups both in enamel (p = 0.5929) and dentin (p = 0.3679) margins Conclusion The placement technique did not influence the marginal adaptation of moderate Class V restorations. Clinical Significance No differences on marginal adaptation were observed when restoring conservative Class V cavities using incremental or bulk placement techniques.

Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) has been documented to effectively arrest dental caries and reduce dental hypersensitivity. SDF promotes remineralization and harden the carious lesion. SDF increases fluoride concentration in saliva and increase the bioavailability of fluoride in saliva. After SDF application, fluoride ion promotes remineralization and silver ion is available for antimicrobial action. Aim: The study aims to determine and compare the amount of fluoride released from various fluoride releasing materials in artificial saliva after 24 hours, 7th day and 14th day of the study. Materials and Methods: 96 premolars free of any caries, fractures, or any other defects were sterilized in 10% formalin for 2 weeks. Then they were rinsed in tap water to remove any fixative from its surface and then stored in deionised distilled water for a period of 30 days prior to testing. Tooth samples were divided into four groups- Group 1: 38% SDF, Group 2: 1.23% APF gel, Group 3: Fluoride varnish and Group 4: Control. All the teeth specimens were blot dried and subjected to their respective material. Fluoride release was analysed using a Fluoride ion-selective electrode after 24 hours, 7days and 14 days of suspension in artificial saliva. Results: Mann-Whitney U Test for inter-group comparison was used for statistical evaluation. 24 Hours fluoride release: The maximum amount of fluoride was released from Fluoride Varnish followed by SDF then APF Gel and least by artificial saliva alone (control) (p<0.001). 7th Day fluoride release: The maximum amount of fluoride was released from SDF followed by Fluoride Varnish then APF Gel and least by artificial saliva alone (control) (p<0.001). 14th Day fluoride release: The maximum amount of fluoride was released from Fluoride Varnish followed by SDF then APF Gel and least by artificial saliva alone (control) (p<0.001).

Abstract Objective The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the microleakage at dentin margins of a flowable resin composite associated with an adhesive, either light cured separately or co-cured, in Class V cavities. Materials and Methods Twenty four recently extracted human molars were prepared with standardized boxshaped Class V cavities of 3.0 mm (mesial-distal), 2.0 mm (occlusal-gingival), and 2.0 mm depth with margins located on enamel and dentin/cementum on the buccal or lingual surfaces. The cavities were randomly assigned into three groups (n=8): Group I – Single Bond + Filtek Z250 (control); Group II – Single Bond + Filtek Flow (light cured separately) + Filtek Z250; and Group III – Single Bond + Filtek Flow co-cured (light cured simultaneously) + Filtek Z250. After being immersed in tap water for 24 h, the specimens were thermocycled (1000x, 5°-55°C, 30 sec dwell time) and immersed in a 0.5% basic fuchsine solution for 24 h. The restorations were sectioned longitudinally and gingival margins were evaluated for microleakage using a 0-4 scale. Data were subjected to the Kruskal-Wallis test at p<0.05. Results A statistically significant difference at p = 0.0044 between Groups 1 and 3 and Groups 2 and 3 was observed. Although Group 2 performed slightly better than Group 1, no significant difference was observed. Conclusion The use of a flowable resin composite cured simultaneously with an adhesive yielded the worst results in this study. As no statistical differences were seen between Groups 1 and 2, the use of a flowable composite as a means of minimizing microleakage at dentin margins may be questioned.
