    The aim of this research was to determine the differences in the chemical composition between fresh and dried chanterelle and porcini mushrooms. The quality properties were determined by determining the mechanical and the chemical properties. The research was done in 2014. Drying was made in ventricular drier with heated air. The principle of drying is accurately performed to obtain characteristic odor and appearance of the mushroom. All of determined components had higher values in both of dried chanterelle and porcini mushrooms, compared with fresh ones. The content of total dry matters was higher in dried porcini mushrooms (93.48%) and chanterelle mushrooms (92.40%) compared with fresh mushrooms (24.70% in porcini mushrooms, and 22.90% in chanterelle mushrooms). The content of total acids in dry porcini mushrooms was 0.40%, but in chanterelle mushrooms was 0.48%. Its value in fresh porcini mushrooms was 0.13% and in chanterelle mushrooms was 0.16 %. The content of vitamin C in dried porcini mushrooms was 12.70 mg/100g, and 13.90 mg/100 g in chanterelle mushrooms. In the fresh porcini mushrooms the value of vitamin C was 9.20 mg/100 g i.e. 9.15 mg/100 g in the fresh chanterelle mushrooms. The value of mineral matters in dried porcini mushrooms was 3.80% and in dried chanterelle mushrooms was 3.50%. The value of mineral matters was 0.75% in fresh porcini mushrooms and 0.90% in fresh chanterelle mushrooms. Drying in ventricular drier is fast method which reduces the necessary water quantity, inactivates the enzymes and reduces microorganism’s metabolism. This is a basic principle in product conserving and storage for a longer period

    The effect of fertilizing on the yield of Primorski almond cultivar grown in Valandovo region in the period of the year from 2012 to 2013 was determined. The experiment was set in four variants and three repetitions. The variants were: Control (untreated); NPK+Ever green with Me (55% organic matter, 2% w/w Mg, 2% w/w Fe, 2% w/w Zn, 2% w/w Mn, 0.5 % w/w Cu, 0.5% w/w B); NPK+Biolinfa (34% organic matter 3% N, 5.80% K2O) and NPK+Oligomix (1.20% B, 0.10% Cu, 4% Fe, 1.50% Mn, 0.10% Mo, 2% Zn). The distance of fruit planting was 4.5 m row by row and 3.5 m in the rows. In each variant and repetition were included 20 plants, and total in all experiment were involved 240 plants. Three foliar treatments were applied with given above fertilizers at a concentration of 0.4%. In the end of the November, soil fertilizing with the fertilizer Polyfeed 11-44-11+ME (Fe, B, Zn, Mn, Co, Mo) in quantity amount of 450 kg ha-1 was done. Before setting up the experiment, soil agrochemical analyses were made, and was concluded good fertility with nitrogen, medium fertility with phosphorus and potassium. The foliar fertilizing has had a positive influence on the yield in all variants, treated with different kinds of fertilizers, compared with the control, untreated variant. The highest average content of almond fruit yield (2781 kg ha-1) and the highest average almond kernels yield (1257.30 kg ha-1) was determined in the variant 2 treated with fertilizer NPK+Ever green with Me (55% organic matter, 2%w/w Mg, 2%w/w Fe, 2%w/w Zn, 2% w/w Mn, 0.5 %w/w Cu, 0.5 %w/w B). The lowest almond fruits yield (1822 kg ha-1) and the lowest almond kernels yield (806.45 kg ha-1) was determined in the control variant

    Odontogenic inflammatory cysts are pathological lesions that are often represented in clinical practice and they presented potential focal points with an impact on other organs and systems in the body. The aim of this research is to compare the patients’ humoral immune response by verifying the level of immunoglobulins IgA, IgG and IgM in the serum before and one month after surgical therapy in patients with odontogenic inflammatory cysts. 44 male and female patients diagnosed with odontogenic inflammatory cysts were included in the study and divided into three groups (Group 1-patients with radicular cysts-23, Group 2-patients with residual cysts-10, and, Group 3-patients with periodontal cysts-11). The values ​​of IgA, IgM and IgG in serum were examined before and one month after the surgical therapy in the device Cobas 6000 model c501 (Roche, Germany). In all three examined parameters of humoral immunity (IgA, IgG and IgM in serum), a significant difference was observed in the patients in addition to a decrease in their values ​​1 month after the surgical intervention compared to before the intervention. The level of IgA before and 1 month after intervention between the three groups of patients did not indicate a significant difference for a consequent p=0.2716 vs. p=0.2898. A significant difference between the three groups of patients, before and 1 month after the surgery, was also not found in terms of the IgG level for a consequent p=0.2692 vs. p=0.3614. The comparison of the three groups of patients regarding the level of IgM in serum indicated a significantly higher value of this parameter in patients with periodontal cyst compared to radicular and residual cyst before the intervention (p=0.0067) and 1 month after the intervention (p=0.0263). The levels of immunoglobulins in patients with odontogenic inflammatory cysts before surgical treatment were significantly elevated, depending on the type of cyst. Their surgical removal generates a decrease in their level. These findings suggest that IgA, IgG and IgM may play an important role in the occurrence, development and persistence of cystic lesions.

    In case of tissue injury that leads to inflammation.Symptoms of inflammation can be prevented by careful and atraumatic workup and by anti-inflammatory drugs. Dexamethasone as an antiinflammatory drug is very often used because of its higher potency, low sodium retention ability and longer half-life. The aim of the paper is to determine the impact of dexamethasone depending on the method ofapplication on postoperative morbidity after surgical extraction of impacted third molars. Interventions were performed in third molars, after which ampoules of Dexamethasone 4mg wereadministered as ananti-inflammatory drug. In all studied groups, a statistically significant difference in the degree of pain between the two time intervals was found for p<0.05, i.e. pain was significantly lower on the seventhpostoperative day compared to the first postoperative d ay in all groups. In all studied groups, a statistically significant difference in the degree of swelling between the two time intervals was found for p<0.05, i.e. swelling was significantly lower on the seventh postoperative day compared to the first postoperative day in all groups.Locally applied dexamethasone immediately after surgical intervention has a positive effect in reducing swelling and pain in the first postoperative days, resulting in faster healing of the surgical wound, and thus faster recovery of the patient's comfort.

    Cystic fibrosis, an autosomal recessive disease, is considered to be the most lethal inherited trait among Caucasians. The median age for CF patients has significantly increased over the past 60 years. This study will review the diagnosis, pathophysiology, and eventual systemic complications of CF and discuss relevant information for the management of CF patients for the oral and maxillofacial surgeon. The aim of this study is to prove the connection between cystic fibrosis and the oral health of the patient. For this study, five patients with cystic fibrosis were treated at the clinic of oral surgery. They were evaluated thoroughly to prevent future complications. In preoperative assessment, the pulmonary status, nutritional status and blood glucose levels were identified. The usual doses of antibiotics, cardio tonic drugs, bronchodilators etc. were considered where it was necessary into the preoperative period. Depending on the nature, duration, and complications of the surgical procedure, patients were taken care of in the postoperative period. Every patient in our study went through the treatment successfully without specific complications with the appropriate procedures and protocols. With preoperative preparation and premedication, the timing of the surgery, monitoring during the intervention, and special post-operative care are necessary for creating a specific protocol for surgical interventions on patients with cystic fibrosis. Patients with cystic fibrosis require consistent, regular follow-up. Keywords: Cystic fibrosis, premedication, protocol, surgery

    Odontogenic radicular cysts are the most common odontogenic inflammatory cysts. Immunopathological reactions play a dominant role in their etiopathogenesis. This study aimed to determine the presence of T and B lymphocytes, cells in the inflammatory infiltrate and, the impact of the cystic lesion on the systemic immune response by verifying the changes in the immune system by applying the immunohistochemical method in a patient with a residual cyst in the lower jaw. and one month after surgery. Case Report: A 60-year-old woman with a residual cyst in her lower jaw was admitted to the Oral Surgery Clinic. Immunoassay of blood was performed to determine the values of immunoglobulins IgA, IgG and Ig M before surgery, cyst enucleation in toto, pathohistological and immunohistochemical analysis of CD3, CD4, CD8, CD20, and CD68 markers. Immunological blood tests were performed one month after surgery. Pathohistological and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the diagnosis of radicular (residual) cyst in the mandible with the presence of multilayered squamous epithelium beneath which is an inflammatory infiltrate with granulation tissue and deposited cholesterol crystals with predominant lymphadenopathy of predominant lymphadenopathy. %), are dominated by macrophages and histiocytes. Serum immunoglobulin IgA, Ig G, and IgM levels were reduced after surgery. The use of pathohistological and immunohistochemical analyzes proves the presence of cellular and humoral immune responses and their role in the etiopathogenesis and development of cysts, while immunoassays confirm the presence of human immunoglobulin this suggests the importance of early detection and therapeutic approach to radicular cysts.

    A lateral periodontal cyst (LPC) is a relatively rare benign intra-osseous epithelial developmental odontogenic cyst that accounts for 0.7% to 1.5% of all jaw cysts. LPCs are usually asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally during routine radiological examination. In some cases, a LPC can also be detected by swelling on the vestibular side of the alveolar process. The typical radiological presentation of LPC is a well-defined, round, ovoid teardrop shape or an radiolucency of an inverted pear less than one centimeter in diameter and surrounded by a sclerotic ring. The aim of this paper is to present a case of LPC associated with an impacted tooth and to emphasize the differential diagnosis as well as to provide new insights regarding etiopathogenesis. Case report: A 40-year-old man checks himself in to the Oral Surgery Clinic with pain in the lower jaw on the left side in the region of the third molar, with the presence of a lateral periodontal cyst. Surgical intervention was performed with the extraction of tooth 38 and enucleation of the lateral periodontal cyst. . The material was sent for histopathological examination. The pathohistological and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the diagnosis of a radicular-lateral periodontal cyst in the mandible with the presence of a multi-layered squamous epithelium under which there is an inflammatory infiltrate with granulation tissue and precipitated cholesterol crystals in the wall. With the use of pathohistological and immunohistochemical analyses, the presence of the cellular and humoral immune responses and their role in the etiopathogenesis and development of the lateral periodontal cyst were proven.
