Abstract:
Calcium hydroxide (CH) has been reported to have several drawbacks when used for apexification. Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) has generated considerable interest as an alternative. Two different cases are reported using MTA for apexification. In the first case an incomplete CH barrier was used as a matrix against which MTA could be condensed. In the second case internal matrix was formed using absorbable collagen sponge and a comparable result could be achieved. Further studies are needed to develop it into a standardized method, akin to that of matrices used in class II restoration.

Multiple Comparison Tests
It would be easy to compare two samples using a significance alpha level of 0.05. In other words, there is only one sample pair to be compared. However, it would be difficult to identify a significantly different sample if the number...
Translocation of Proteins into the Mitochondria
Sorting of outer membrane proteins:
Mitochondrial outer membrane proteins are of two types: the transmembrane, beta-barrel porins, and the membrane-anchored, alpha-helical proteins. Beta-barrel porin precursors are translocated by the TOM complex and inserted into the outer mitochondrial membrane by the SAM complex. In contrast,...
