Aims and Objectives: The main aim of this study is to compare and evaluate the shear bond strength of composite resin using a total etch adhesive and self-etch adhesive after treatment with different collagen cross-linking agents. Materials and Methods: Forty freshly extracted human maxillary central incisors were taken. The proximal dentin was exposed, cavities were prepared on mesial and distal of each tooth. The specimens were randomly divided into two groups based on bonding agent applied-Group A and Group B i.e universal bonding agent and all in one bonding agent respectively and are subdivided into four groups based on the surface treatment of dentin. Group I A (n=10) Control-total etch(CTE); Group II A (n=10) Sodium Ascorbate-total etch (STE); Group III A (n=10)- Proanthocyanidin total etch(PTE); Group IV A (n=10)- Chitosan total etch (CHTE); Group I B (n=10) Control-self etch (CSE); Group II B (n=10) Sodium Ascorbate-self etch(SSE); Group III B (n=10)- Proanthocyanidin self-etch (PSE); and Group IV B (n=10) - Chitosan self-etch (CHSE). Shear bond strength of the specimens are tested with universal testing machine, and the data was statistically analysed with one way ANOVA. Results: Significantly higher shear bond strength to dentin was observed in teeth treated with 6.5% Proanthocyanidin Total etch, 10% Sodium Ascorbate Total etch and 1% Chitosan acetate compared to the control group. No significant difference was seen with self-etch treated groups. Conclusion: Dentin surface pretreatment with 6.5% Proanthocyanidin, 10% Sodium Ascorbate and 1% Chitosan acetate results in significant enhancement in bond strength of composite resin to deep dentin.

Abstract This study examined the effects of injectable vitamin C (VC) before transport and duration of transit on feedlot performance, inflammation, and muscle fatigue in cattle. One hundred thirty-two Angus-cross steers (393 ± 4 kg) were stratified by body weight (BW) to a 2 × 2 factorial of intramuscular injection (INJ; 20 mL/steer): VC (250 mg sodium ascorbate/mL) or saline (SAL) and road transit duration (DUR): 18 h (18-h; 1,770 km) or 8 h (8-h; 727 km). On d 0, steers were weighed and given INJ of VC or SAL immediately before transport. Upon return (d 1), BW and blood were collected before steers returned to pens equipped with GrowSafe bunks. Steers were weighed on d 0, 1, 7, 15, 30, 31, 54, and 55. Data were analyzed via ProcMixed of SAS (experimental unit = steer; 32 to 34 steers/treatment) with fixed effects of INJ, DUR, and the interaction. Blood was collected on d -5, 1, 2, 3, and 7 (n = 9 steers/treatment); blood parameters were analyzed as repeated measures with the repeated effect of day. Area under the curve (AUC) for plasma ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) was calculated using R. Final BW was greater for 8-h compared to 18-h (P = 0.05) with no effect of INJ or interaction (P ≥ 0.51). Dry matter intake (DMI) from d 1 to 7 was greater for VC-8, intermediate for VC-18 and SAL-18, and least for SAL-8 (P = 0.02). Overall DMI tended to be greatest for SAL-18, intermediate for VC-18 and VC-8, and lowest by least for SAL-8 (P = 0.08). Day 7 to 31 gain:feed (G:F) was greatest for VC-18 compared to other treatments (INJ × DUR, P = 0.05), and there was no effect of treatment on overall G:F (P ≥ 0. 19). There was no INJ or INJ × DAY (P ≥ 0.17) effect on serum lactate, haptoglobin, or non-esterified fatty acid. However, these blood parameters were greater on d 1 for 18-h compared to 8-h, and both treatments returned to near baseline by d 3 (DUR × DAY, P < 0.01). Plasma ascorbate concentrations on d 1 were greater for VC compared to SAL and returned to baseline by d 2 (INJ × DAY, P < 0.01). Plasma FRAP AUC from d -5 to 3 was greatest for VC-18, intermediate for VC-8 and SAL-8, and lowest by least for SAL-18 (INJ × DAY, P = 0.02). This suggests an antioxidant prior to long-haul transit positively influenced antioxidant capacity; however, VC did not improve overall post-transit performance. While longer transit duration increased indicators of muscle fatigue and inflammation, post-transit performance was not appreciably different between transit durations.

Abstract Objective Various intrinsic and extrinsic stains cause discolored teeth, which is of great concern to patients, which can be treated by bleaching, enamel microabrasion, veneers, and crowns. However, bleaching leads to reduced bond strength if adhesive restorations are performed immediately.Thus, the application of antioxidant agents after bleaching has been recommended, which are proved to act as free radical scavengers, improving the bond strength. Materials and Methods A total of 120 extracted human maxillary incisor teeth were taken. Using a slow-speed diamond saw and a water coolant spray, the roots of all the teeth were removed approximately 2 mm below the cementoenamel junction. With the labial surface facing upward, each sectioned sample was embedded in the acrylic resin. Then, the central portion of the embedded tooth was ground flattened with 600-grit silicon carbide paper such that the labial enamel surface becomes smooth and evenly flat.All 120 samples were divided into two control groups (n = 20), i.e., positive control group (n = 10) and negative control group (n = 10) and five experimental groups (n = 100), such that each experimental group had 20 samples.The enamel surface in both the control groups and groups treated with antioxidants was thoroughly rinsed off with distilled water for 30 seconds and subjected to bonding procedure. Result Significant differences were observed among the experimental groups (p < 0.05). The samples that were treated with 10% sodium ascorbate (group III) demonstrated significantly higher mean shear bond strength than the other experimental groups (p < 0.05).

Abstract Stress can be a reason for some physiological and biological disorders in the body. The antioxidative defense system is necessary for the maintenance of redox homeostasis in the organisms. Alkaline water (AW) is in the focus of the scientific interest due to its antioxidative effect. The treatment with AW and sodium ascorbate (SA) is expected to have potential preventive effect on the organism to hyperthermic stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of AW and SA on glucose and cortisol levels during acute hyperthermic stress, in white female Wistar laboratory rats. The rats were divided into three groups, each having 10 subjects. They were exposed in hyperthermic conditions (41˚C) for 80 min, in 21 consecutive days in order to induce oxidative stress. The first group received drinkable water (control group), the second AW, and the third, AW and SA. Plasma glucose levels were determined by colorimetric method. Cortisol level was measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method (ELISA). The means were compared using the Tukey test. Differences were considered significant at a level of p<0.05. Our results showed that levels of glucose and cortisol were significantly higher in the group treated with AW on the 21st day after treatment (p<0.0001), but not on the 7th and 14th day as compared to the control group. Also, co-treatment of animals with AW and SA had significantly increased the levels of glucose and cortisol on the 21st day after treatment, indicating a synergistic effect. In conclusion, the individual action of AW or in synergism with SA caused a high protective effect on oxidative damage in white Wistar laboratory rats.

The modification of the quinolysin alkaloid lupinine was carried out with the intro-duction of 1,2,3-triazolyl substituents for the hydroxymethylene group in the C-1 position of the quinolysin backbone. The reaction of lupinine with methanesulfochloride in the presence of triethylamine smoothly led to lupinine methanesulfonate, whose further reaction with sodium azide in DMFA led to lupinilazide. 1,3-Dipolar [4+2]-cycloaddition of the resulting azide to alkynes produced more stable 1,2,3-triazole compounds. The interaction of lupinilazide with 2-ethinylpyridine and with alcohols containing a terminal acetylene group (propargyl alcohol, 2-methylbut-3-in -2-ol or hex-5-in -1-ol) proceeded smoothly in the DMFA medium. The reactions were carried out in the presence of an aqueous solution of CuSO4 and sodium ascorbate in DMFA and allowed the corresponding 4-substituted (1S,9aR)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl to be synthesized with good yields)methyl)octahydro-1H-quinolysins. The results of studying the structural features of synthesized compounds by 1H - and 13C - NMR spectroscopy, as well as data from the two-dimensional COSY (1H-1H) and HMQC (1H-13C) spectra are presented. The values of chemical shifts, multiplicity and integral intensity of 1H and 13C signals in one-dimensional NMR spectra are determined. In the spectra of all synthesized new quinolizi-dinotriazoles, there is a peak of the fragmentary C10H17N ion (150-151 cu), corresponding to the cleavage of the molecule by the C-10 atom of the quinolizidine backbone.

Banana pseudo-stem (BPS), which is rich in fibre and polyphenols, is a potential functional ingredient for the food industry. In this study, BPS was added at concentrations of 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5 g/kg to a minced pork batter to evaluate its performance as a filler and to pork burger patties to evaluate its performance as a natural antioxidant. The effects of BPS were compared with those of carrageenan and ascorbate, which are a conventional binder and antioxidant, respectively. The performance of BPS was similar to that of carrageenan in terms of the cooking yield and texture of the cooked batter. BPS reduced the brightness of fresh patties and appeared to reduce oxidative discolouration during the frozen storage of raw patties. Moreover, BPS reduced the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) during the refrigerated and frozen storage of cooked patties. A greater decrease in TBARS formation was observed with 4.5 g BPS/kg compared with 0.5 g sodium ascorbate/kg during refrigerated storage. In contrast to ascorbate, BPS promoted the presence of lipid-derived volatile compounds induced by thermal breakdown in the headspace of cooked patties. Nonetheless, this effect was reduced as the amount of BPS in the patties increased. In cooked minced meat products, BPS could increase cooking yields and lipid oxidative stability during storage and might result in a more intense flavour.

Aim: To investigate the effect of sodium ascorbate (SA), an antioxidant and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), a buffering agent mixture, on the shear bond strength of a luting resin to dentin, and pH changes of the extraradicular medium solution after intracoronal bleaching with hydrogen peroxide. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, 60 human maxillary central incisors were randomly assigned into six groups ( n: 10): Group 1: restored, no bleach; group 2: bleached, bonded immediately; group 3: bleached, treated with 10% SA applications before bonding; group 4: bleached, treated with calcium hydroxide applications before bonding; group 5: bleached, treated with CaOH2 and SA mixture applications before bonding; group 6: delay bonding by seven days. For bleach treatment in groups 2 to 6, intracoronal bleaching was performed with 35% hydrogen peroxide for four days. SA or CaOH2 or mixture of SA and CaOH2 were left in the access cavity for four days. Hybrid blocks, 4 mm × 4 mm wide × 2–mm thick, were luted with resin cements on dentin surface and then the specimens were subjected to shear bond strength testing. Analysis of variance and Tukey post hoc multiple comparison tests were applied ( P < .05). Results: G2 and G4 showed significantly low bond strength values and they were lower than the other groups ( P < .05). There were no significant differences between G1, G3, and G6 ( P > .05). The pH values had risen markedly in the groups containing calcium hydroxide (G4 and G5) after four days ( P < .05). Conclusion: The application of 10% SA or 10% SA and CaOH2 mixture were effective at reversing bleaching effects on bond strength. CaOH2 or CaOH2 and 10% SA mixture increased the external medium pH and were effective for alkalinization after intracoronal bleaching.
