Avaliação in vitro da capacidade do aparelho tri auto ZX em determinar o comprimento dos dentes nos casos de retratamento endodôntico
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências da Saúde.Este estudo in vitro avaliou a odontometria eletrônica, utilizando o Tri Auto ZX, nos casos de retratamento, cujos canais apresentavam remanescente de material obturador. Sessenta e dois dentes, após o preparo dos canais, foram mensurados pelo método direto (CD) e eletrônico (CE1) para então, serem obturados. Decorridos sete dias os canais foram desobturados e nova odontometria eletrônica foi realizada (CE2). As medidas CE1 e CE2 foram comparadas com CD. Dentro do limite de tolerância de ±0,50mm, o aparelho foi preciso em localizar o forame em 75,86 dos casos CE1, e em 81,03% dos casos de CE2

The Mechanism of (R,R) ZX-5 on Increasing NO Release
(R,R) ZX-5 has been proven to have positive effects on choroidal blood flow without affecting the sclera and ciliary bodies in New Zealand white rabbits. This study was designed to investigate the mechanisms of (R,R) ZX-5 on improving the choroidal blood flow and promoting NO production. HUVECs (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) were used to determine the production of eNOS, p-eNOS, AKT and Erk1/2 by Western blot analysis. iNOS and eNOS mRNA levels were investigated by RT-PCR and the effect of (R,R) ZX-5 on NO production were determined by eNOS activity assay. We found (R,R) ZX-5 upregulated protein expression of eNOS and iNOS, increased NO production, and reduced ERK and Akt protein level. Therefore, (R,R) ZX-5 may promote the choroidal blood flow in New Zealand white rabbits without affecting the blood flow in the iris or ciliary bodies via increasing NO production. These results suggest that (R,R) ZX-5 may function to cure and prevent Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
Superdense Coding with GHZ and Quantum Key Distribution with W in the ZX-calculus
Quantum entanglement is a key resource in many quantum protocols, such as quantum teleportation and quantum cryptography. Yet entanglement makes protocols presented in Dirac notation difficult to verify. This is why Coecke and Duncan have introduced a diagrammatic language for quantum protocols, called the ZX-calculus. This diagrammatic notation is both intuitive and formally rigorous. It is a simple, graphical, high level language that emphasises the composition of systems and naturally captures the essentials of quantum mechanics. In the author's MSc thesis it has been shown for over 25 quantum protocols that the ZX-calculus provides a relatively easy and more intuitive presentation. Moreover, the author embarked on the task to apply categorical quantum mechanics on quantum security; earlier works did not touch anything but Bennett and Brassard's quantum key distribution protocol, BB84. Superdense coding with the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state and quantum key distribution with the W-state are presented in the ZX-calculus in this paper
On-top pair-correlation function in the homogeneous electron liquid
The ladder theory, in which the Bethe-Goldstone equation for the effective potential between two scattering particles plays a central role, is well known for its satisfactory description of the short-range correlations in the homogeneous electron liquid. By solving exactly the Bethe-Goldstone equation in the limit of large transfer momentum between two scattering particles, we obtain accurate results for the on-top pair-correlation function g(0), in both three dimensions and two dimensions. Furthermore, we prove, in general, that the ladder theory satisfies the cusp condition for the pair-correlation function g(r) at zero distance r=0.http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:000235009500047&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=8e1609b174ce4e31116a60747a720701Physics, Condensed MatterSCI(E)8ARTICLE3null7
Improved fifth-order geometric aberration coeincients of electron lenses
In this paper, fifth-order geometric aberrations of round electron lenses have been restudied. Improved analytical formulae of the aberration coefficients were derived by the computer algebra software-Mathematica-and their correctness verified by cross-checking with numerical integration and differential algebraic techniques for a given electromagnetic lens.Physics, AppliedSCI(E)EI3ARTICLE5653-6593
Long-wavelength behavior of the dynamical spin-resolved local-field factor in a two-dimensional electron liquid
The high-frequency limits of the singular component A(omega) of the small wave-vector expansion of the longitudinal (L) and transverse (T) components of the spin-resolved exchange-correlation kernel tensor f(xc,sigmasigma)('L,T)(q,omega)=-v(q)G(sigmasigma)('L,T)(q,omega) in a two-dimensional isotropic electron liquid with arbitrary spin polarization are studied. Here G(sigmasigma)('L,T)(q,omega) is the spin-resolved local-field factor, v(q) is the Coulomb interaction in momentum space, and sigma denotes spin. Particularly, the real part of A(omega) is found to be logarithmically divergent at large omega. The large wave-vector structure of the corresponding spin-resolved static structure factor is also established.Physics, Condensed MatterSCI(E)1ARTICLE23null7
Determination of some reactive oxygen species scavengers based on the peroxidase-oxidase oscillator
This paper reports a new method for detection of ROS scavengers including superoxide dismutase, ascorbic acid and glutathione based on a 'probe' of peroxidase-oxidase biochemical oscillator. The oscillation period and amplitude change with different concentrations of scavengers. The linear ranges of superoxide dismutase, ascorbic acid and glutathione are respectively 1.56 x 10(-4)-1.56 x 10(-3) mg mL(-1), 1.75 x 10(-7) -1.75 x 10(-5) mol L-1 and 9.38 x 10(-7) -7.5 x 10(-5) mol L-1. The selectivity, linearity and precision for superoxide dismutase, ascorbic acid, and glutathione are presented and discussed. The results compared well with other standard methods for determination of superoxide dismutase, ascorbic acid and glutathione. Some possible steps in the overall reaction mechanisms are discussed
