The Effect of Vitamin C on the Reproductive Functions of Paraquat Intoxicated Male Albino Rats (Rattus norvegicus)
Abstract: Paraquat (PQ) is a bipyridylium herbicide applied around trees in Orchids and between crop rows to control broad-leaved and grassy weeds. Its oxidation results in the formation of superoxides and supernitrite species which causes damage to cellular components. Studies have implicated PQ as one of the pesticides that contributes to the reduction in male reproductive functions in humans and animals during exposure. This study, therefore, determined the antioxidant effect vitamin …

Mechanical and Morphological Characterization of Halloysite Nanotube (HNT) Reinforced Urethane Dimethacrylate (UDMA) Dental Composites
Abstract: Dental resin composites are widely used in restorative dentistry because of their excellent aesthetics, conservative cavity preparation, and satisfactory mechanical properties. However, their long-term clinical performance is limited by polymerization shrinkage, wear, microcrack formation, water absorption, and degradation in the oral environment. This study investigates the mechanical and morphological characteristics of Halloysite Nanotube (HNT)-reinforced Urethane Dimethacrylate (UDMA) dental composites to enhance the structural performance and durability of restorative materials. UDMA-based …
