Pomegranate Extract Potentiates the Anti-Demineralizing, Anti-Biofilm, and Anti-Inflammatory Actions of Non-Alcoholic Mouthwash When Associated with Sodium-Fluoride Trimetaphosphate

This study investigated the anti-caries and anti-inflammatory effects of mouthwash formulations containing Punica granatum (pomegranate) peel extract (PPE), sodium-trimetaphosphate, and low concentrations of fluoride.PPE was characterized using high-performance liquid chromatography (ellagic acid and punicalagin).Total phenolics were quantified amo

Modeling of spatial variations of growth within apical domes by means of the growth tensor. II. Growth specified on dome surface

Variations of the elemental relative rate of Gazebo Accessories growth are modeled for parabolic, elliptic and hyperbolic domes of shoot apices by using the growth tensor in a suitable curvilinear coordinate system when the mode of area growth on the dome surface is known.Variations of growth rates within the domes are obtained in forms of computer
