AB  - Background: The long-term use of antifungal therapy in denture stomatitis (DS) treatment could be accompanied by antifungal-resistant strain onset, leading to compromised therapeutic procedure and disease reappearance. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has shown the ability to eradicate oral infections and resistance strains. This prospective clinical study aimed to assess the PDT’s effectiveness compared to the conventional treatment on clinical and microbiological parameters in patients with DS without denture wear during the treatment and follow-ups. Methods: Forty-two patients diagnosed with DS were randomly assigned to one-session single PDT application (test group) or conventional antifungal therapy (control group). Clinical and microbiological parameters were assessed and analyzed before and at 3rd, 15th, and 30th day following the treatments. Microbiological samples were analyzed by a Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The data was statistically analyzed. Results: Prior to the treatment, Candida species, including C. albicans (100%), C. glabrata (33%), C. tropicalis (31%), C. krusei (31%) were isolated in all patients. Both treatment procedures demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in C. albicans at all follow-up time intervals (p < 0.05). However, PDT displayed a statistically significant reduction in C. krusei compared to the conventional treatment at all follow-up periods (p < 0.05). Clinical parameters improved considerably in the test group compared to the control group at the 3rd and 15th day of follow-up. Conclusion: One-session single PDT application demonstrated significant improvement in both clinical and microbiological outcomes in a short-term period, resulting in complete Candida spp. eradication compared to conventional antifungal therapy.

AB  - There are two important features that have a significance when the camouflage protection abilities are in question. First, dyeing of the material and everything related to process of dying and the influence of the material impregnation which is most commonly used to improve physical and mechanical properties of textile. In our initial research, we examined influence of textile impregnation on the value of diffuse reflection within visible and near-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Some questions arose and we continued that initial research. The aim of this paper is to try to give answers on those questions. In the experiment polyamide cloth samples dyed with specific camouflage dyes and impregnated with polyurethane (pu) and chlorosulfonated polyethylene (csm) were used. Spectral reflection measurements in the wavelength area from 400 nm to 1000 nm were performed for the light green, beige green, dark green, brown and black tone for impregnated as well as for non-impregnated samples. The measurements were conducted using the uv/vis/nir spectrophotometer uv 3600 from a japanese manufacturer shimadzu with an integrating sphere. The measurement uncertainty was 2% and the uv probe programme package was used. This first experiment showed that impregnation affects the value of diffuse reflection, therefore further tests have been conducted. Here, we present results of the scanning electron microscope (sem) analysis. Samples were analyzed using jeol jsm-6610 in lv (low vacuum) mode and a voltage of 15 kv was applied, for same types of samples and same shades. The results did not show great difference between samples. Regarding the values of diffuse reflection, however, we still need to find a way to explain obtained differences so further tests will be performed such as ftir or eds.
