Influence of Temperature on the Antibacterial Activity of Sodium Hypochlorite
Giardino,Luciano; Mohammadi,Zahed; Beltrami,Riccardo; Poggio,Claudio; Estrela,Carlos; Generali,LuigiAbstract The aim of this study was to compare the antimicrobial activity of 5.25% NaOCl, Hypoclean and Chlor-Xtra at 20 °C and 45 °C in bovine root dentin. One-hundred-and-seventy dentin tubes prepared from bovine maxillary incisors were infected for 21 days with Enterococcus faecalis. The specimens were divided into the following groups: 1. 5.25% NaOCl 20 °C; 2. Hypoclean 20 °C; 3. Chlor-Xtra 20 °C; 4. 5.25% %...
Antimicrobial Effect and Surface Tension of Some Chelating Solutions with Added...
Giardino,Luciano; Andrade,Flaviana Bombarda de; Beltrami,RiccardoAbstract This study assessed the antimicrobial efficacy and surface tension of established irrigating solutions with a new experimental chelating solution in infected dentin tubes. Twenty-five specimens were randomly assigned to each of the irrigating solutions. Twenty specimens were used as negative and positive controls. After 21 days of contamination with E. faecalis, the irrigating solutions MTAD, QMiX and ...
Antibacterial Power of Sodium Hypochlorite Combined with Surfactants and Acetic...
Giardino,Luciano; Estrela,Carlos; Mohammadi,Zahed; Palazzi,FlavioThe aim of this ex vivo study was to compare the antibacterial power of 1% NaOCl with 1% acetic acid, 5.25% NaOCl and two commercially available NaOCl modified with surfactants in bovine root dentin. A total of 120 dentin tubes prepared from intact bovine incisors were infected for 21 days with Enterococcus faecalis and randomly divided into six groups as follows: 5.25%NaOCl; Hypoclean; Chlor-Xtra; 1% NaOCl wit...
Effect of a Surfactant on the Antimicrobial Activity of Sodium Hypochlorite Sol...
Bolfoni,Marcos Rodolfo; Ferla,Marcelo dos Santos; Sposito,Otávio da Silva; Giardino,Luciano; Jacinto,Rogério de Castilho; Pappen,Fernanda GeraldesThe objective of the present study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) associated with a surfactant. Seventy single-rooted extracted human teeth were inoculated with Enterococcus faecalis, and incubated for 21 days (37 °C). The groups were distributed according to the irrigation solution used during root canal preparation: 5%, 2.5% and 1% NaOCl; 5%, 2.5% and 1% Hypoclean(r)...
Pulp Tissue Dissolution Capacity of Sodium Hypochlorite Combined with Cetrimide...
Almeida,Luiza Helena Silva de; Leonardo,Natália Gomes e Silva; Gomes,Ana Paula Neutzling; Giardino,Luciano; Souza,Erick Miranda; Pappen,Fernanda GeraldoThis study evaluated the influence of the addition of cetrimide and polypropylene glycol to sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) on its capacity to dissolve pulp tissue. Bovine pulp fragments with standardized weight and volume were immersed for 5, 15 and 30 min in 2 mL of NaOCl and Hypoclean (NaOCl added with cetrimide and polypropylene glycol) solutions at 5.25%, 2.5%, 1%, 0.5% and 0.25% and afterwards re-weighted.
