The influence of mechanical stimulation on osteoclast localization in the mouse maxilla: bone histomorphometry and finite element analysis
The mechanism of traumatic bone resorption in the denture-bearing bone has not yet been established with regard to the osteoclastic activity in relation to the mechanical stimulus. The purpose of this study wa...

Genomic sequence of an infectious bursal disease virus isolate from Zambia: classical attenuated segment B reassortment in nature with existing very virulent segment A
We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of an infectious bursal disease (IBD) virus (IBDV) isolate (designated KZC-104) from a confirmed IBD outbreak in Lusaka in 2004. The genome consisted of 3,074 and...

Molecular phylogeny of equine herpesvirus 1 isolates from onager, zebra and Thomson’s gazelle
Viruses related to equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) were isolated from an aborted fetus of an onager (Equus hemionus) in 1984, an aborted fetus of Grevy’s zebra (Equus grevyi) in 1984 and a Thomson’s gazelle (Ga...

Molecular characterization of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV): Diversity of very virulent IBDV in Tanzania
Nucleotide sequences of the VP2 hypervariable region (VP2-HVR) of 14 infectious bursal disease viruses (IBDVs) isolated in Tanzania from 2001 to 2004 were determined. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the isol...

Fatigue behaviour of beta Ti-22V-4Al alloy subjected to surface-microstructural modification
The present paper describes a surface-microstructural modification due to cold work and the fatigue behaviour of the surface-modified specimens in beta Ti-22V-4Al alloy. As-solution treated specimens were shot...

Stability and Thermal Quench Study in a HTSC Pancake Coil
In spite of rather high general stability of HTSC Bi-based magnets, catastrophic thermal quench may appear in them under certain circumstances. That happens because of non-linearity of voltage-current characte...

MRI of peripheral nerves and pathology of sural nerves in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type III
We investigated two patients with herediatary motor and sensory neuropathy type III, one with Déjérine-Sottas disease and the other with congenital hypomyelination neuropathy based on nerve pathology and MRI o...

Pseudopolymorphism and phase stability of 7-piperidino-1,2,3,5-tetrahydroimidazo-[2,1-b]quinazolin-2-one (DN-9693)
The phase stabilities of three pseudopolymorphs of DN-9693 were studied by using thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis. The thermal dehydration of DN-9693·2HCl·H2O proceeds by the mechanism of two-di...

The effect of sodium salicylate on the osteoclast-like cell formation and bone resorption in a mouse bone marrow culture
Salicylates are reported to have an inhibitory effect on bone resorption in vivo and in vitro. The present study examined the effect of sodium salicylate on the formation of osteoclast-like cells in vitro. When m...

Effects of 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-Bisphosphonate (HEBP) on the Maturation Enamel in Rat Incisor
Bisphosphonates are compound which contain a central P-C-P bond and are thus structurally related to the inorganic pyrophosphates, but are resistant to metabolic destruction (Fig.1). They bind strongly onto th...

Properties of Superconducting Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O Thin Films Prepared by Controlling Sputtering Conditions and Annealing Atmospheres
Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-0 thin films were prepared by using a rf magnetron sputtering. The films were grown on MgO substrates at 300°C cyclically by sputtering through an off-centered shutter hole while rotating the subst...
