The TryDequeue in ConcurrentQueue will return false if no items in Queue.

If the Queue is empty I need that my queue will wait until new item to be added in queue and it dequeue that new one, and the process will continues like that.

Should i use monitor.enter,wait,pulse or any better options in C# 4.0

Isn't this what BlockingCollection is designed for?

As I understand it, you can wrap your ConcurrentQueue with one of these, and then call Take.
