## Background and objective: Laser-assisted tissue repair is often accompanied by a high dehiscence rate, which may be due to alterations in suture material after laser exposure. the goal of this study was to investigate the effect of co2 laser irradiation on the tensile strength of microsurgical s

Background and Objective: Tissue welding using laser-activated protein solders may soon become an alternative to sutured tissue approximation. In most cases, approximating sutures are used both to align tissue edges and provide added tensile strength. Collateral thermal injury, however, may cause di
The effect of preheat treatment a t temperatures below the glass transition for various periods of time on selected properties of molded polycarbonate has been studied. Changes in tensile and flexural strength as functions of time and preheat temperature (80-140OC.) were determined and these are dis
