Influence of bioactive materials used on the dentin surface whitened with carbamide peroxide 16%

This study investigated the influence of bioactive materials on the dentin surface whitened. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three bovine teeth were shaped into three dentin wafers. Each wafer was then sectioned, into six dentin slices. One slice from each tooth was distributed into one of 6 groups: 1.CG = control group (distilled water); 2.WT = whitening treatment; 3.WT + MI Paste Plus, applied once a day; 4.WT + Relief ACP30, applied once a day for 30 mintes; 5.WT + Relief ACP60, applied once a day for 60 minutes; 6.WT + Biosilicate^®, applied once a week. All groups were treated over 14 days. RESULTS: CG presented all dentinal tubules occluded by smear layer; WT group was observed all dentinal tubules opened. In the groups 3, 4 and 6, tubules were occluded. Group 5, dentinal tubules were completely occluded by mineral deposits. CONCLUSION: The use of bioactive materials immediately after whitening treatment can reduce or even avoid the demineralization effect of whitening and avoid exposing dentinal tubules.

Práticas de gestão ambiental das indústrias coureiras de Franca-SP

The leather footwear industry is an important sector in the Brazilian economy. The tannery industry accounted for $ 2.05 billion to exports in 2011, which represents a contribution of 6.86% to the Brazilian balance of trade. However, it is a highly polluting industry generating highly toxic and hazardous waste. Therefore, it is extremely important to search for environmental management actions that allow a cleaner production and waste recycling to prevent its discharge into the environment resulting in the deterioration of nature and quality of human life. Thus, based on a literature review and exploratory research, this study consisted of an analysis of some environmental management actions adopted by the leather industry in Franca - SP verifying if the industries have certifications or follow standards that characterize a responsible environmental management. This study is justified by the fact that tanneries and footwear industries produce highly hazardous waste, and therefore environmental actions are necessary to treat the waste effectively in order to minimize its environmental impacts. The literature review and empirical research conducted demonstrated the development of new techniques and technologies aiming at mitigating the impacts of leather waste in the environment. These actions are crucial for companies to remain competitive and focused on sustainability in this rapidly growing market.

Função do diretor na escola pública paulista: mudanças e permanências

This essay is intended for an analysis of the principal's duties in São Paulo State school, considering the conceptions of Administration specialists, Education professionals and the legal directives pertinent to the State government. It was interesting the procedures of rereading and analyzing of the literature of the area; the survey and analysis of legal documents which, direct or indirectly, concern the principal's duty and the accomplishment, transcription and analysis of half elaborated interviews with administrators and teachers. At the end of this research, it was found some contradictions in the conception of School Administration like it is diffused in different contexts, which anyway reflects the conceptions of the respondents.

Um modelo para a dengue com influência sazonal

In this study, a mathematical model with temporal dependence for dengue transmission was developed, considering coupling between human population and the vector mosquito, and a sorotype circulating on population. This model was analysed with the goal to explain disease's periodicity. Finally, a genetic algorithm was set up to study model's sensibility.

Formulações fortes para o problema de dimensionamento de lotes com várias plantas

This paper considers the multi-plant lot sizing problem. Each item can be produced in any plant and it is possible to meet the demand of a particular plant with production from one (or several) other plants, in this case, incurs a transfer cost. The objective is todevelop strong formulations for this problem. Reformulations that based on the shortest path problem and facility location problem are investigated. Finally, some computational results are presented comparing all the proposed formulations.

Produzindo para disponibilidade: uma aplicação da Teoria das Restrições em ambientes de produção para estoque

The objective of this paper is to present how the Theory of Constraints has recently been dealing with make to stock environments. This new format introduces interesting innovations in terms of the use of simplified Drum-Buffer-Rope method as well as ways to pull production in environments that produce in advance of demand. It also innovates by creating conditions for providing market opportunities based on the explicit assurance of product availability, hence its name: make to availability (MTA). Although it provides important contributions to production planning and control, articles that have directly addressed this issue have not been identified to date in both national and international journals.

Esverdeando a cadeia de suprimentos: algumas evidências de empresas localizadas no Brasil

The purpose of this article is to identify and analyze how Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) practices have been adopted by high-tech companies located in Brazil in order to create guidelines to support similar companies to incorporate GSCM initiatives. This research was based on case studies carried out in some representative companies in this sector. The main results are: (a) the supply chain structure can affect both the adoption of GSCM practices and the way they are adopted, (b) the Brazilian environmental legislation and international policies are very important to boost the adoption of GSCM practices, and (c) based on the results obtained, for each one of the six GSCM practices, suggestions for a more appropriate adoption are offered to similar companies.
