USE OF HIGH DUCTILE MORTAR MIXING METHOD FOR THE ENHANCEMENT OF FLEXURAL FRACTURE BEHAVIOUR OF STEEL FILLER MORTAR

Use of high ductile mortar mixing method for the enhancement of flexural fracture behaviour of steel filler mortar

The use of steel fillers enhances the flexural behaviour of mortar and concrete.However, it makes it more difficult to disperse them uniformly and coat them firmly in the mortar/concrete with the conventional mixing method while using them at higher content.In this method, steel fillers are generally mixed after the mixing of mortar with a full par

Triiodothyronine Potentiates BMP9-Induced Osteogenesis in Mesenchymal Stem Cells Through the Activation of AMPK/p38 Signaling

Thyroid hormone (TH), triiodothyronine (T3), and thyroxine (T4), which are released from the thyroid, control many cellular processes in various cell types.It is worth noting that TH plays a complex role in skeletal metabolic balance, and few studies have investigated whether TH exerts any effects on osteogenesis in bone mesenchymal stem cells (MSC

Melatonin Receptor Agonists as the "Perioceutics" Agents for Periodontal Disease through Modulation of Porphyromonas gingivalis Virulence and Inflammatory Response.

Aim"Perioceutics" including antimicrobial therapy and host modulatory therapy has emerged as a vital adjunctive treatment of periodontal disease.Melatonin level was significantly reduced in patients with periodontal diseases suggesting melatonin could be applied as a potential "perioceutics" treatment of periodontal diseases.This study aims to inve
