Analysis of the morphology and composition of tooth apices apicectomized using three different ablation techniques.
2011
Objectives: To investigate apicectomies performed using burs, a CO2 laser or an Er:YAG laser and to evaluate the following aspects: morphology of apicectomized surfaces, presence of failures at the dentin/obturation material interface (marginal fit) of the apical portions of the root canals, and the proportions of chemical elements in the apicectomized surfaces. Study design: Twenty-four teeth were divided into three groups of eight and each group underwent apicectomy by one of three different ablation techniques: bur, CO2 laser or Er:YAG laser. The morphology of the apicectomized surfaces was then analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and their chemical composition was analyzed by en…
Mechanochemical Synthesis, Photophysical Properties, and X-ray Structures of N-Heteroacenes
2016
The described mechanochemical methodology is an example of a proof-of-concept in which solution-based tedious, poor yielding, and difficult syntheses of pyrazaacenes are achieved under solvent-free ball-milling conditions; the method is easy, high yielding, time-efficient, and environmentally benign. The synthesized compounds also include pyrazaacenes (N-heteroacenes) that are octacene analogues containing pyrene building blocks. The compounds were sparingly soluble in common solvents, and column chromatographic purifications could be avoided after the solvent-free syntheses. The UV/Vis absorption spectra of the pyrazaacenes show intense absorption bands in the near-IR region. The single-cr…

ChemInform Abstract: High-Resolution Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy of Steroids and Their Derivatives
2013
Abstract: Steroids are an important class of organic compounds containing a vast array of biologically and physiologically essential molecules. Due to their availability, relatively straightforward derivatizability, and endogeneity, they are widely used in pharmacological applications. The investigation of molecular and physicochemical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in the solid state is important, because these properties are directly related to their pharmacological activity. Several methods are available for this purpose. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy offers a nondestructive and flexible technique, providing both structural and dynamic information. It can be applie…

Diversity in Itraconazole Cocrystals with Aliphatic Dicarboxylic Acids of Varying Chain Length
2013
The cocrystal formation potential of itraconazole, a potent antifungal drug, with C2–C10 aliphatic dicarboxylic acids has been investigated. Using two experimental screening techniques (solvent-assisted grinding and evaporation-based crystallization), the cocrystals of itraconazole with C2–C7 dicarboxylic acids have been successfully synthesized and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, Raman spectroscopy, and thermal analysis. The characterized multicomponent compounds include anhydrous cocrystals (malonic, succinic, glutaric, and pimelic acids), a cocrystal hydrate (adipic acid), and cocrystal solvates with acetone and tetrahydrofuran (oxalic a…
Efficacy of 595- and 1319-nm pulsed dye laser in the treatment of acne vulgaris: a narrative review
2020
Acne is one of the commonest problems of adolescence with almost half of the patients experiencing persistence into adulthood. Pulsed dye lasers (PDL) with wavelengths of 585 and 595 nm targeting hemoglobin have been used for the treatment of this condition and its sequelae. Recent introduction of PDL with a higher wavelength of 1319 nm has been reported to offer some benefit to acne patients. We reviewed the literature on the use of 595-nm and 1319-nm PDL in the management of acne. A PubMed literature search for search terms "pulsed dye laser," "acne laser therapy," "light therapy for acne," "595 nm and acne," "1319 nm and acne" was done. Studies, series and case reports were included. The…

Prospective study of the 532 nm laser (KTP) versus diode laser 980 nm in the resection of hyperplastic lesions of the oral cavity
2018
Background The aim of this study is to evaluate the resection of hyperplastic lesions on the buccal mucosa comparing the 532nm laser (KTP), versus diode 980nm laser, considering pain, scarring, inflammation and drug consumption that occurred postoperatively with each lasers. Material and Methods A prospective study of consecutive series of 20 patients in two groups that presents hyperplastic lesions on the buccal mucosa. The choice of the KTP laser or diode 980nm laser for the surgery was made randomly. The power used was 1.5W in both groups in a continuous wave mode with a 320 μm optical fiber. Parameters of pain, scarring, inflammation and consumption of drugs were recorded by a Numerical…
