Abstract: Tooth enamel is the most mineralized tissue in the human body, and in this article the use of Raman spectroscopy for the analysis of tooth structure, a comparison with synthetic apatites, and use in dentistry are described. Spectral peaks that are related to dental hard and soft tissues are discussed, which provide crucial data in understanding the chemical structural properties of dentin and enamel. The Raman spectrum of dentin confirms the presence of crystalline phosphate-based minerals in dentin. Both dentin and enamel consist of two primary components: an inorganic or mineral phase that closely resembles hydroxyapatite and the Raman spectrum of dentin that confirms the presence of crystalline phosphate-based minerals in dentin. Hence, the mineral phase in dentin and enamel may be characterized essentially as nonstoichiometric substituted apatite. The presence of carbonate (A and B type) incorporated in the hydroxyapatite lattice is also confirmed by the presence of spectral bands. The organic phase, which is mainly composed of type I collagen, is confirmed by the spectral bands of amide I and amide II bands, tryptophan, and phenylalanine. Furthermore, these spectral bands associated with organic and inorganic parts of the enamel and dentin are useful in predicting early formation of carries formation. 相似文献
The main scope of this article paper is to experimentally clarify the effects of outer-tube and inner-tube corrugations on thermal and frictional characteristics in a horizontal double-pipe heat exchanger. Nusselt number, friction factor, and thermal performance factor are evaluated for new various arrangements of convex and concave corrugated tubes. Smooth tubes were corrugated by means of a special machine. Findings indicate that the arrangement type of corrugated tubes has a significant effect on the mentioned parameters. The best performance was obtained for a heat exchanger made of a concave corrugated outer tube and a convex corrugated inner tube. 相似文献
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been intensively studied for several purposes including therapeutic applications in cancer. When prepared with tryptophan and photoreduction, silver nanoparticles (TrpAgNPs) become an alternative to conventional anticancer drugs. In this study, the anticancer activity of synthesized TrpAgNPs against MCF-7 breast cancer cells was evaluated, and the inhibitory concentration (IC50) was found to be ~3.4 mg/mL. Since the protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) concentrations in tumor cells are elevate compared to normal cells, the PPIX-TrpAgNP interaction was studied to investigate if it could contribute for cell apoptosis. The investigation was performed using PPIX solution (0.9 μg/mL) with different TrpAgNP concentrations (from 0 to 13 mg/mL). PPIX was characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The results have shown that the presence of spherical TrpAgNps with 16-nm diameter quench the PPIX fluorescence intensity. This quenching is strongly dependent on the concentration of the TrpAgNPs, and it is caused by a combination of a static and a dynamic process. The chemical binding leads to oxidation of tryptophan and formation of kynurenine, observed in the emission spectra around 470 nm. The strong reduction of the PPIX fluorescence decay lifetime with nanoparticle increasing concentration confirms the quenching processes due to charge transfer from the excited PPIX states to the resonant silver states. The present study confirms the anticancer activity of TrpAgNPs on the human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) in vitro and indicates that PPIX-AgNP interaction could contribute with MCF-7 apoptosis.
Within our thick brane approach previously used to obtain the cosmological evolution equations on a thick brane embedded in
a five-dimensional Schwarzschild Anti-de Sitter spacetime it is explicitly shown that the consistency of these equations with
the energy conservation equation requires that, in general, the thickness of the brane evolves in time. This varying brane
thickness entails the possibility that both Newton’s gravitational constant G and the effective cosmological constant Λ4 are time dependent. 相似文献

A simple and rapid spectrophotometric technique has been designed for the trace copper analysis employing 1-(2-Thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol (TAN) reagent in aqueous micellar solution of cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a surfactant. Copper complexed with 1-(2-Thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol to form bis[1-(2-Thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol]copper. The present spectrophotometric technique was very important since the micellar system was used in place of the toxic, high cost and time-consuming solvent extraction steps. The technique showed an enhanced detection efficiency, specificity, and molar absorptivity. It was found that the molar absorption coefficient and sensitivity of Sandel were ε 2.45 × 104 L mol?1cm?1 and 2.6 ngcm?2 at λmax 578.4 nm. A linear calibration plot in the range 0.12–5.0 μg mL?1 was obtained; a stoichiometric metal ligand ratio [M:L] of 1:2 was found for the formation of Cu-[TAN]2. The complex was formed at pH 9.5 and was stable up to 24 h. The proposed technique has been employed to study copper from different alloys, biological, environmental and pharmaceutical samples. 相似文献
