Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytocompatibility and Antimicrobial Properties of Silver Nanoparticles-Loaded AMPs in the Oral CavityYanli Lv, Weikai ZhangPostoperative infection following oral metal implantation is a key factor that affects the success rate of surgery. This infection is mainly caused by bacterial biofilms. Traditional single antibacterial coatings have limitations, including a narrow antibacterial spectrum and poor cytotoxicity or stability. This study combined silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and the synthetic antimicrobial peptide GL13K using electrostatic self-assembly technology to create a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2026 · 1,688 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessIn the abstractDental Caries Etiology: A Modified Six-Factor Model and Venn DiagramJohn Sami MamounDietary fermentable carbohydrates or sucrose may be metabolized by cariogenic bacteria at a specific tooth surface site, which may result in an episode of the site having a pH of 5.5 or less, that may cause temporary net demineralization. Numerous demineralization episodes at a specific tooth surface may result in a carious lesion if saliva does not remineralize the surface … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2025 · 3,711 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunologic Aspect of Mice (Mus musculus) Dental Caries Induced by Streptococcus mutansSri MurwaniDental caries (tooth decay), cavities or caries is a breakdown of teeth due to activities of bacteria acid producing in the presence of fermentable carbohydrates. The most responsible bacteria for dental cavities are Streptococcus mutans. Dental shape, saliva pH, normal flora, diets were suggested as predisposition factors for dental plaque and caries. The aim of this research was to study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2017 · 8,128 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Advances in Point of Care Diagnostic Tools: A ReviewLaura Wessels, Haider RaadGlobally, there is a great need for portable, inexpensive diagnostic tools that can provide quick, accurate results using relatively small sample volumes. Point-Of-Care (POC) measurements of human saliva, sweat and/or blood capable of detecting glucose levels, foreign pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and many different viruses (HIV, Ebola, Influenza, etc.) that use microfluidics and optofluidics are close to commercial availability. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2016 · 8,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonomers Release from Dental Composites: Effect of Immersion Media and Photoactivation Light SourceRaquel A.B. da Silva, Talita P. Prates, Driely Barreiros et al.The present study aimed to evaluate qualitatively and quantitatively the products released by composites with different light sources when immersed in distilled water or artificial saliva. Thirty-six samples were obtained from the composites using a silicone matrix. Specimens were divided into 12 groups according to: Composite (Charisma®, FiltekTMSilorane or GC Kalore®), device used for the materials photoactivation (halogen light or … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2015 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResidential Exposure of Environment Toxic Substance Outcome during Menstrual CycleS. Alagendran, G Archunan, M. P. Jonathan et al.Problem statement: It was intended to diagnose and treat the disorders of female reproductive system where they are exposed to environmentally toxic pesticides and estrogenic compounds like bisphenol A which are the main reason for the infertility problems. Approach: Human saliva contains arrays of proteins that have distinct biological functions. Results: Salivary hormones concentrations of luteinising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Sucrose in the Development of Oral Biofilm in a Simulated Mouth SystemWan Nordini Hasnor Wan Ismail, Fathilah Abdul Razak, Zubaidah Hj Abdul RahimThe development of oral biofilm consisting of early settlers and late settlers in the presence and absence of sucrose using a simulated mouth model was investigated. The experiments were carried out by growing the early settlers’ biofilm consisting of Strep. mitis and Strep. sanguinis and late settlers’ biofilm of Strep. mutans in the simulated mouth system. Experiments using three different … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelection of Probiotic Microorganisms Against Pathogens of Agricultural AnimalsSagidoldina Zhanar, Sadanov Amankeldi, Ratnikova Irina et al.The work was carried out on the selection of probiotic microorganisms to create an environmentally friendly therapeutic and preventive biological product that is active against pathogens of agricultural animals. According to the results of research, 3 strains of lactic acid bacteria were selected for the construction of a probiotic - Lactobacillus plantarum 1, Streptococcus salivarius 20 n, Lactobacillus fermentum 15 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2021 · 6,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Stevia Consumption on Blood Pressure, Stress Hormone Levels and Anthropometrical Parameters in Healthy PersonsEmad A.S. Al-Dujaili, Husni Twaij, Yazan A. Bataineh et al.Stevia is a natural sweetener containing steviol glycosides known to be several times sweeter than sucrose. It is thought to have several beneficial properties though some evidence state it may have detrimental effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential beneficial or harmful effects of stevia consumption by exploring its effects on blood pressure, stress hormone levels … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 31 Aug 2017 · 25,789 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRnai Induced Wing Modification in Leon Mutant Drosophila: A Developmental AnalysisSandeep Satapathy, Cheng Ting ChienThe precision of growth of an animal is meticulously regulated by extrinsic and intrinsic factors, with focus on maintenance of organismal homeostasis. The clue to change in physiology or metabolism of an organism, at times can be derived from the changes in phenotypes. In the Drosophila melanogaster model system, GAL 4-overexpressed RNAi driver males (Mini-White Marker), targeted against specific genes, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 6,719 accessesView PDFCite
