Purpose. This in vitro experiment studied the effects of sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen
peroxide on the cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus mutans through analysis with a …

The antibacterial activity of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) was assessed using three
different experimental approaches. Standard minimum inhibitory concentration analyses …

A chemically defined medium in which Streptococcus mutans strains AHT, BHT, GS-5, JC-2,
Ingbritt, At6T, At9T, 6715, and OMZ-176 and Streptococcus salivarius strain HHT grew …

This investigation evaluated the efficacy of two bicarbonate-containing dentifrices (one with
fluoride and one without) against one placebo dentifrice (containing neither fluoride nor …

It is hypothesised that exogenous nitrite acidified by metabolic products of acidogenic
bacteria in the mouth will be converted to products which inhibit growth of the bacteria in …

Mutans streptococci, particularly Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus, can be
shown to be highly associated with caries in humans. Together with Lactobacillus spp., they …

The effect of phosphate concentration and the initial pH of bacteriologic media on acid
production and bacterial growth of Streptococcus mutans was studied. There was an …

Objectives In vitro methods to study dental biofilms are useful in finding ways to support a
healthy microbial balance in the oral cavity. The effects of sucrose, xylitol, and their …

The present study showed that the growth of Streptococcus mutans GS5 was inhibited by
xylitol, and this indicates together with previous reports that this is a common phenomenon …

Purpose To compare and contrast antibacterial activities of a baking soda-containing
dentifrice, Arm and Hammer Dental Care (AHDC) with two fluoride dentifrices without baking …
