Hyaline layer of Hopewell-Smith derivative proteins, such as Emdogain, in trying to stimulate reproduction of cementum in periodontal bony defects is based on the presence of enamel matrix-like proteins within the hyaline layer. Hyaline layer of Hopewell-Smith In tooth development, the hyaline layer of Hopewell-Smith is the most peripheral layer of initially unmineralized dentin that forms immediately subjacent to the cementodentinal junction (CDJ). It eventually mineralizes, but not before the rest of the dentin is already mineralized. It is 0.5-0.8 µm thick and contains enamel matrix-like protein as well as the proteins one would expect to find in dentin. It is into this hyaline
Eggshell the uterus. The egg can take up fluids and grow in size during this process, and the final, most rigid layer is not added until the egg is full-size. Hatching birds, amphibian and egg-laying reptiles have an egg-tooth used to start an exit hole in the hard eggshell. Eggshell waste is fundamentally composed of calcium carbonate, and has the potential to be used as raw material in the production of lime. Eggshell An eggshell is the outer covering of a hard-shelled egg and of some forms of eggs with soft outer coats. Insects and other arthropods lay a variety of
