Background: Compounds present in both green and black teas have been shown to inhibit the growth and activity of bacteria associated with mouth infections. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of green tea leaves extract on the aerobic mouth bacterial load. Methods: A total of 25 volunteer female students, aged 20-25 years, were selected and then evaluated by green tea extract and ...

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) in artificial feeds on the growth and quality of large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea) raised in cages. Two diet formulas with dietary CLA were developed, and a diet without of CLA served as a control. The effects of CLA (2% and 4%) on average daily gain per tail (DGT), feed conversion ratio (FCR)...

Catechins and theaflavins, polyphenolic compounds derived from tea (Camellia sinensis, fam. Theaceae), have been reported to have a wide range of biological activities including prevention of tooth decay and oral cancer. The present study was undertaken to determine the usefulness of green tea leaves and black tea extract for the delivery of catechins and theaflavins to the oral cavity. After h...

Pseudomonas plecoglossicida NZBD9 is the causative agent of white nodules in cultured large yellow croaker in Fujian Province, China. We sequenced the genome of NZBD9 to gain a better understanding of the etiological agent. The genome sequence of the bacterium consists of 5.44 million bp, with a G+C content of 61.9%.

objectives: periodontal pathogens need acidic environments to proliferate in periodontium, and their growth is affected by the salivary flow rate and ph of the mouth. alterations in flow and acidity of saliva have an important effect on oral diseases such as periodontitis. this study was designed to compare salivary ph and flow rate before and after using green tea, black tea and coffee in pati...

Background and objectives: Black mulberry (Morus nigra L.) is well-known for its nutritional and medicinal values. Traditionally, the fruits have been used for treatment of mouth and throat inflammations. The aim of this study was evaluation of the effect of black mulberry fruit juice for treatment of gingivitis. Methods: The study was a randomized dou...

Vaccination is an effective and safe strategy for combating bacterial diseases in fish, but the mechanisms underlying the early immune response after vaccination remain to be elucidated. In the present study, we used RNA-seq technology to perform transcriptome analysis of spleens from large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) induced by inactivated trivalent bacterial vaccine (Vibrio parahaemo...
