FAECALIS AND S. MUTANS – AN IN VITRO STUDY}, journal={Journal of Faculty of Pharmacy of Ankara University}, volume={49}, pages={785–789}, year={2025}, DOI={10.33483/jfpau.1601950}, author={Göçmen, Damla and Erol, Hilal Basak and Zıraman, Fatma Gül and Kaşkatepe, Banu}, keywords={Biofilms, dentin, endodontics, nanoparticles, root canal irrigants}, abstract={Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the antimicrobial effect of super anionic oxygen solution containing silver nanoparticles (NpAg) and super anionic oxygen solution (H2O8) in vitro
Material and Method: “The antimicrobial activity of the solutions was tested against Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 (E. faecalis) and Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175 (S. mutans) standart bacteria. The effects of them applied on the bacterial suspension after 10 minutes were examined in terms of colony reduction.
Result and Discussion: As a result of the efficacy tests, NpAg solution showed a 46.67% (0.27 log) decrease in E. faecalis concentration and a 58.8% (0.38 log) decrease in S. mutans concentration. Similarly, H2O8 solution showed an 84.67% (0.81 log) decrease in E. faecalis concentration and a 62.94% (0.43 log) decrease in S. mutans concentration. Under the limitations of this study, it was concluded that super anionic oxygen solutions (NpAg) and super anionic oxygen solutions (H2O8) have a significant antimicrobial flora against E. faecalis and S. mutans, but are attenuated when compared to irrigants routinely used clinically. Since this study did not simulate the oral environment, future studies may provide more effective results.}, number={3}, publisher={Ankara University}
