Some dynamic biofilm models for dental caries development are limited as they require multiple experiments and do not allow independent biofilm growth units, making them expensive and time-consuming. This study aimed to develop and test an in vitro dynamic microcosm biofilm model for caries lesion development and for dose-response to chlorhexidine. Microcosm biofilms were grown under two different protocols from saliva on bovine enamel discs for up to 21 days. The study outcomes were as follows: the percentage of enamel surface hardness change, integrated hardness loss, and the CFU counts from the biofilms formed. The measured outcomes, mineral loss and CFU counts showed dose-response effects as a result of the treatment with chlorhexidine. Overall, the findings suggest that biofilm growth for seven days with 0.06 ml min?1 salivary flow under exposure to 5% sucrose (3 × daily, 0.25 ml min?1, 6 min) was suitable as a pre-clinical model for enamel demineralization and antimicrobial studies. 相似文献

This study aimed to correlate the cariogenic responsiveness of biofilms generated from the saliva of mothers and children. The mother–child pairs were classified according to the children’s caries levels: caries-free, early childhood caries (ECC) or severe ECC. Microcosm biofilms were grown on enamel discs for 10?days. Factors under evaluation were caries experience levels, inoculum source (mothers and children) and growth conditions including cariogenic challenge (growth medium provided with and without sucrose) and no cariogenic challenge (growth medium sucrose-free). Statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA and Tukey’s test, and the Spearman correlation test. Regular sucrose exposure resulted in a higher surface hardness change (%SHC). The correlation between biofilms formed from saliva of mother–child pairs was significant regarding pH, total aciduric microorganisms and lactobacilli counts under cariogenic challenge. Biofilm growth originating from mother–child pairs under regular sucrose exposure promoted the same cariogenic response independently of caries experience and the microbiological profile of the donors. 相似文献

To achieve demineralization of crab shell waste by chemical and biological treatments, lactic acid and lactic acid bacterium
were applied. In 5.0 and 10% lactic acid, pH rapidly decreased from 6.8 to 4.2 and from 4.5 to 2.4 at day 3, respectively,
and thereafter the pH remained at an almost constant level. In a 10% lactic acid bacterium inoculum, pH lowered to 4.6 at
day 5. Relative residual ash content rapidly decreased to 49.1 and 16.4% in 5 and 10% lactic acid treatments, respectively,
for the initial 12 h. In 2.5, 5 and 10% lactic acid bacterium inoculums, relative residual ash content rapidly decreased to
55.2, 40.9 and 44.7%, respectively, on the first day. Residual dry masses were 76.4, 67.8 and 46.6% in 2.5, 5 and 10% lactic
acid treatments, respectively, for the initial 12 h. After a one-time exchange of the lactic acid solution, in the 5.0% lactic
acid treatment, residual dry mass rapidly decreased from 66.0 to 41.4%. In 2.5, 5 and 10% lactic acid bacterium inoculums,
residual dry masses decreased to 67.6, 57.4 and 59.6% respectively, on the first day. Protein contents after demineralization
ranged from 51.3–54.7% in the chemical treatments and decreased to 32.3% in the lactic acid fermentation process. A negative
relationship was shown between pH and demineralization rate in lactic acid and lactic acid bacterium treatments. These results
suggest that lactic acid fermentation can be an alternative for demineralization of crab shells, even though the rate and
efficiency of the demineralization is lower than the chemical treatment. 相似文献
