The effect of the process parameters in the planing processes on the surface roughness of cherry and pear woods

In this study, the effects of the process parameters in the planing processes on the surface roughness were investigated. For this purpose, the experimental samples of cherry (Prunus avium L.) and pear (Pirus communis L.) wood species, which are commonly used in the Turkish decoration industry, were prepared. In preparing the experimental samples, the wood was planed tangentially and radially to the annual rings at a cutting depth of 1.4 mm in a milling machine with 4 blades 85 mm in diameter. The wood was planed into the direction of spindle rotation and in the direction against the spindle rotation at feed rates of 6, 9 and 12 m/min. The surface roughness values of the experimental samples were determined by using a stylus-type profilometer according to the ISO 4287 standards. The surface roughness was evaluated according to the Ra, Rz and Ry principles, which were three basic parameters of the determination method for surface roughness. According to the results, when the planing parameters were differentiated, the obtained surface roughness values also acquired a different character. The feed direction of work pieces for planing in the direction of spindle rotation was lower than the feed direction in the opposite to spindle rotation for the surface roughness.Keywords: Surface Roughness, Planing, Cherry, Pear

Oxidative status in plasma, urine and saliva of girls with anorexia nervosa and healthy controls: a cross-sectional study

2-s2.0-85104635276Background: Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious psychosomatic disorder with unclear pathomechanisms. Metabolic dysregulation is associated with disruption of redox homeostasis that might play a pivotal role in the development of AN. The aim of our study was to assess oxidative status and carbonyl stress in plasma, urine and saliva of patients with AN and healthy controls. Methods: Plasma, spot urine, and saliva were collected from 111 girls with AN (aged from 10 to 18 years) and from 29 age-matched controls. Markers of oxidative stress and antioxidant status were measured using spectrophotometric and fluorometric methods. Results: Plasma advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) were significantly higher in patients with AN than in healthy controls (by 96, and 82%, respectively). Accordingly, urinary concentrations of AOPP and fructosamines and salivary concentrations of AGEs were higher in girls with AN compared with controls (by 250, and 41% in urine; by 92% in saliva, respectively). Concentrations of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in saliva were 3-times higher in the patients with AN than in the controls. Overall antioxidants were lower in plasma of girls with AN compared to the controls, as shown by total antioxidant capacity and ratio of reduced and oxidized glutathione (by 43, and 31%, respectively). Conclusions: This is the first study assessing wide range of markers of oxidative status in plasma, urine and saliva of the patients with AN. We showed that both, higher levels of markers of oxidative stress and lower antioxidants play a role in redox disruption. Restoration of redox homeostasis might be of the clinical relevance © 2021, The Author(s).2018/36-LFUK-10 Ministerstvo školstva, vedy, v?skumu a športu Slovenskej republiky: 1/0613/17This study was supported by the Grant of Ministry of Health of the Slovak republic 2018/36-LFUK-10 and by the Grant Agency of Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the Slovak Republic VEGA 1/0613/17
