Caries research, 36(2), 136-141 (2002-05-31)
A previous study showed that a sodium hexafluorosilicate-calcium chloride-based two-solution fluoride (F) rinse containing 6 mmol/l of F was more effective than a 12 mmol/l F sodium fluoride rinse in depositing F on tooth surfaces and increasing oral F levels.

Inorganic chemistry, 45(11), 4372-4380 (2006-05-23)
Synthesis and crystal structure of a tren-based amide, L(1), N,N',N''-tris[(2-amino-ethyl)-3-nitro-benzamide] is reported. The crystallographic results show intramolecular hydrogen bonding and aromatic pi...pi stacking among tripodal arms which prevent opening of the receptor cavity. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in L1 generates the
