Short dentin etching with universal adhesives: effect on bond strength and gingival margin adaptation by Hoda Saleh Ismail, Hanan Ahmed Nabil Soliman

“…Abstract Background Short dentin etching, a relatively recent technique, aims to improve resin-dentin bonding by preserving hydroxyapatite crystals within the collagen spaces. This study explores short dentin etching’s potential in mitigating over-etching issues in deep proximal dentin/cementum margins, an aspect not previously investigated. …”

Condensed Aerosol Generators in Fire Safety of Buildings. Part 1 – Analysis of Normative and Legal Documents by Robart Śliwiński

“…However, unlike these detection and alarm systems, fire extinguishing systems based on condensed aerosol generators focus on providing an adequate level of protection for property, as they are dedicated to spaces that are not normally occupied. For this reason, emphasis is placed on the reliability of the generators, whose only task is to trigger appropriately at a specific time and fill the protected area with aerosol. …”
