to eliminate microorganisms that are responsible for pulpal and periapical infections and to prevent reinfection of the root canal system an effective chemomechanical preparation by irrigants with sustained antimicrobial activity is beneficial. hereby, we evaluated the residual antibacterial activity of mtad after canal obturation at different time intervals.a total of 120 human single-canalled...

in the present study, we have reported the total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of aerial parts of salvia leriifolia extracts and fractions. methanolic, n-hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate extracts were screened to analysis their antioxidant activities by four complementary test systems, namely dpph free radical scavenging activity (rsa), t...

objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of gutta percha/ah26 and resilon/realseal se on residual antimicrobial activity of chlorhexidine (chx) in human root dentin and suggest the best filling material when chx is used as final irrigant. materials and methods: one-hundred and forty-four single-rooted human teeth were selected for this study. canals were instrumented to the ...

lactobacillus spp are a group of gram-positive, non-spore forming, cocci or rod shaped, catalase negative organisms that benefit to the host. prebiotics are non-digestible food ingredients that stimulate the growth and /or activity of bacteria in the digestive system in ways claimed to be beneficial to health. this study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of selected probiotic mi...

b ackground: brevinin-2r, as 25 amino acids peptide of the skin of r ana ridibunda frog, possesses potent antimicrobial and low hemolytic activity. it has an n-terminal hydrophilic region and a c-terminal loop that is delineated by an intra-disulfide bridge. in our study, brevinin-2r and its diastereomer as well  as its  cyclic  analogue  were  synthesized  and  characterized  in  order  to inv...

the antimicrobial activity of thirty six novel dihydropyrimidine derivatives was evaluated against common pathogenic bacteria. significant antimicrobial activity (mic=32, 64 µg/ml) was observed. escherichia coli and pseudomonas aeruginosa as gram-negative bacteria and staphylococcus aureus as gram-positive bacteria were determined to be the most susceptible pathogens in this study. the highest ...

recently, the effects of antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles was considered by researcher because of bacterial resistance to antimicrobial agents in chemical.the aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the gold nanoparticles on escherichia coli. gold nanoparticles are chemically synthesized. standard strain of e. coli was cultured in a nutrient broth. minimum ...

we consider of the antimicrobial activity on the ag nanoparticles(ag nps) aqueous solutions, which was prepared using a stabilizer, such as poly(n vinyl 2 pyrrolidone pvp , for staphylococcus aureus) s aureus and escherichia coli e coli by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration mic . antimicrobial effect of ag nps for s aureus and e coli was investigated using disk diffusion method also...
