- OBJECTIVES: : To investigate infection and host immunity patterns in sheep with naturally occurring "broken-mouth" periodontitis.MATERIALS AND METHODS: : Eight periodontally healthy (HS) and eight periodontally diseased ewes (PDS) were selected. Subgingival plaque and sera were collected and examined for evidence of human periodontitis-associated pathogens. Serum IgG titers were measured by ELISA to multiple strains of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Bacteroides forsythus, Dichelobacter nodosus, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Prevotella intermedia, and Fusobacterium nucleatum as well as several purified antigens (cysteine proteases, LPS, K, and fimbriae).RESULTS: : Neither the organism Aa nor antigens to Aa were found in any animal. Most animals were positive for Pg, Bf, and Pi, but DNA probes detected no difference between HS and PDS relative to amounts of pathogens in subgingival plaque. PDS had significantly higher serum IgG titers to all Pg strains, to 50% of Bf strains, to the Pi and Fn strains, and to fimbriae and the two cysteine proteases (p-values ranging from 0.05 to 0.001). Regression analysis demonstrated a significant association between number of teeth lost and serum IgG antibody titers to whole-cell sonicate antigens of P. gingivalis strains (p<0.01) and body weight (p<0.01).CONCLUSIONS: : The presence of pathogens associated with periodontitis was reflected in differences in serum IgG titers between healthy and diseased sheep. This may have influenced animal body weight and might have systemic health and economic consequences. The data suggest that susceptible and non-susceptible sheep can be identified for periodontal research.

- Sliding wear performance of carbide-free bainitic steel is significantly affected by microstructure. This investigation is an attempt to find a correlation between microstructure and wear resistance of carbide-free bainitic steel and compare the results with that of a conventional tempered martensitic microstructure. Under predominantly adhesive wear conditions, carbide-free bainitic microstructure with the highest amount of retained austenite offers the best wear resistance. This is mainly attributed to the more pronounced work hardening and TRIP-effect of carbide-free bainitic microstructure austempered at higher temperature. Therefore, higher initial bulk hardness is not the only indicator of wear resistance. Moreover, when both oxidation and adhesion are active, a microstructure with an optimum content of retained austenite and bainitic ferrite shows the highest wear resistance.

- This study aims to understand the effects of toughness and hardness on two-body wear of nanostructured carbide-free bainitic steels. For this purpose, three different steel grades were austempered at 250 °C to obtain carbide-free bainitic microstructures with different mechanical properties. The mechanical properties were determined in terms of fracture toughness and hardness. The wear tests were carried-out at three different loads with two different types of abrasive papers. The results show that a carbide-free bainitic steel with an optimum combination of hardness and fracture toughness exhibits the highest wear resistance. It has been seen that hardness is not the only parameter in determining the abrasive wear resistance and retained austenite has a beneficial effect on two-body abrasive wear.
