PDF Cavity Disinfection Using Er,Cr:YSGG Laser Induced Photoacoustic Streaming Technique: Rand kareem Jassim Hussein Ali Jawad*
...Show More Authors

Abstract:

Aim: The goal of this research was to study the influence of Er,Cr:YSGG laser at short pulse duration (60 µsec) on the number of streptococcus mutans bacteria in vitro.

Material and Methods:  twenty-eight extracted third molars free of caries, cracks, and other irregularities were used. For the testing of the materials, both the agar well technique and a tooth cavity model were employed. The agar wells of plates that had been inoculated with Streptococcus mutans previously were stuffed with the test materials, in order to conduct the tests. The zones of inhibition were assessed using millimeter measurements, after an incubation period of 48 hours .In order to accomplish the tooth cavity model test, cylindrical cavities were invented in the occlusal surface of the teeth, which was kept even. The teeth were stored for 72 hours at 37°C in a broth culture of Streptococcus mutans. Following this, the teeth were divided arbitrarily into four groups of seven teeth (each including 14 cavity preparations). The experimental cavities in the first group (A) were not treated and considered as a control. In group B, a cavity disinfectant based on chlorhexidine was applied to the experimental cavities for 60 seconds. In group C, an erbium, chromium doped yttrium scandium gallium garnet laser was used at a short pulse duration (60 µsec) (0.25 watts, 15 Hz, 1% air, 1% water). In the last group, a chlorhexidine cavity disinfectant was applied for 60 seconds, followed by a laser treatment for 30 seconds with the same parameters as those described previously. The teeth were stored in saline for a period of three days. Standard amounts of dentin chips were retrieved from the cavity walls. ANOVA test was used to analyze repeated measure mean between tested concentration and control. Data expressed as mean ±SE.  LSD tests was used to calculate the significant differences between tested mean.

Result: After the statistical test, the highly significant difference in the diameter of inhibition zone was observed in group D (26 mm) where both chlorhexidine and laser were used followed by group B (18.71 mm) where the chlorhexidine gluconate based cavity disinfectant used alone, the least significant difference observed in group C (10.26mm) where the laser used alone.

Conclusion: According to this in vitro study, a photon-induced photoacoustic streaming technique using an Er,Cr:YSGG pulse laser at short pulse duration effectively agitates a chlorhexidine-based cavity disinfectant, which leads to the inhibition of Sterptococcus Mutans.

Upgrading of Alum Preparation and Dosing Unit for Sharq Dijla Water Treatment Plant by Using Programmable Logic Controller System
...Show More Authors

One of the important units in Sharq Dijla Water Treatment Plant (WTP) first and second extensions are the alum solution preparation and dosing unit. The existing operation of this unit accomplished manually starting from unloading the powder alum in the preparation basin and ending by controlling the alum dosage addition through the dosing pumps to the flash mix chambers. Because of the modern trend of monitoring and control the automatic operation of WTPs due to the great benefits that could be gain from optimum equipment operation, reducing the operating costs and human errors. This study deals with how to transform the conventional operation to an automatic monitoring and controlling system depending on a Programmable

An An Accurate Estimation of Shear Wave Velocity Using Well Logging Data for Khasib Carbonate Reservoir - Amara Oil Field
...Show More Authors

   

Shear and compressional wave velocities, coupled with other petrophysical data, are vital in determining the dynamic modules magnitude in geomechanical studies and hydrocarbon reservoir characterization. But, due to field practices and high running cost, shear wave velocity may not available in all wells. In this paper, a statistical multivariate regression method is presented to predict the shear wave velocity for Khasib formation - Amara oil fields located in South- East of Iraq using well log compressional wave velocity, neutron porosity and density. The accuracy of the proposed correlation have been compared to other correlations. The results show that, the presented model provides accurate

Using of Index Biological Integrity of Phytoplankton (P-IBI) in the Assessment of Water Quality in Don River Section
...Show More Authors

       The multimetric Phytoplankton Index of Biological Integrity (P-IBI) was applied throughout Rostov on Don city (Russia) on 8 Locations in Don River from April – October 2019. The P-IBI is composed from seven metrics: Species Richness Index (SRI), Density of Phytoplankton and total biomass of phytoplankton and Relative Abundance (RA) for blue-green Algae, Green Algae, Bacillariophyceae and Euglenaphyceae Algae. The average P-IBI values fell within the range of (45.09-52.4). Therefore, water throughout the entire study area was characterized by the equally "poor" quality. Negative points of anthropogenic impact detected at the stations are: Above the city of Rostov-on-Don (1 km, higher duct Aksai) was 38.57 i

Shedding Light on Thermodynamics and Physical Properties of Deep Eutectic Solvents for Separating Toluene-Heptane Mixtures Using COSMO-RS
...Show More Authors

A total of 150 deep eutectic solvents (DESs) with varying salt, hydrogen bond donor, and molar ratios were studied to develop a screening tool for separating toluene-heptane mixtures. The activity coefficient at infinite dilution (γ∞) of each DES was predicted using COSMO-RS, and selectivity (S∞), capacity (C∞), and performance index (PI) were calculated. Key DES properties, including density, viscosity, melting/freezing point, surface tension, and conductivity, were compiled from the literature to create a DES property library. A comprehensive screening tool with four evaluation criteria was developed, which identified ethyl triphenylphosphonium bromide:ZnCl2 (1:4) as the optimal solvent for toluene-heptane separation.

Improving the efficiency and security of passport control processes at airports by using the R-CNN object detection model
...Show More Authors

The use of real-time machine learning to optimize passport control procedures at airports can greatly improve both the efficiency and security of the processes. To automate and optimize these procedures, AI algorithms such as character recognition, facial recognition, predictive algorithms and automatic data processing can be implemented. The proposed method is to use the R-CNN object detection model to detect passport objects in real-time images collected by passport control cameras. This paper describes the step-by-step process of the proposed approach, which includes pre-processing, training and testing the R-CNN model, integrating it into the passport control system, and evaluating its accuracy and speed for efficient passenger flow
