Regioselectivity in the anodic electrochemical oxidation of cholic acid with different anodes is described. The oxidation with PbO(2) anode affords the dehydrocholic acid in quantitative yield after 22 h. 3alpha,12alpha-Dihydroxy-7-oxo-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (59%) and 3alpha-hydroxy-7,12-dioxo-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid (51%) are obtained stopping the
To quantify luting cement at the crown-tooth interface of esthetic crowns fabricated using four different techniques and two methods of excess cement removal. Four methods of crown fabrication were used: the feldspathic porcelain and platinum foil technique, the feldspathic porcelain

A laser technology for manufacturing implantable electrode arrays, using spin-on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and platinum foil as materials, was investigated in respect to its scaling limitations. The following aspects were analyzed: Minimal width and centre-to-centre distance of platinum tracks, the ability
