Evaluation of the antimicrobial activity of each component in Grossman’s sealer

Abstract: The antimicrobial activity of Grossman's sealer and its components was evaluated on 13 different strains using the double layer well-diffusion method. Results revealed that Grossman's sealer presented antimicrobial activity against all the tested strains. Among the components of the cement, sodium tetraborate presented the greatest antimicrobial activity, both in type and diameter of the halo and ring of inhibition. Sealer powder, rosin, and eugenol presented similar activity, with no effect on P. aeruginosa a… Show more

“…These materials present in their compositions filler particles that provide better mechanical properties, rheological adjustment, and radiopacity [1,[3][4][5][6] . Bismuth compounds are often used in root canal sealers to provide radiopacity [7,8] and have been used in Grossman's sealer [9] . However, resin-based endodontic sealers have been presented better properties than water-based sealers [10] .…”

Portanto, o material obturador deve ser capaz de eliminar microrganismos, neutralizar produtos tóxicos residuais e prevenir a recorrência de infecções no canal radicular, a fim de favorecer o processo de reparo (Leonardo et al, 2000;Leonardo et al, 2007-a).…”

“…A Kocuria rhizophila, por ser amplamente reconhecida como um microrganismo com baixa resistência intrínseca, é utilizada como microrganismo controle, sendo empregada em diversos estudos sobre atividade inibitória de materiais obturadores de canal radicular, por meio do teste de difusão em ágar (Leonardo et al, 2000, Sipert et al , 2005Savioli et al, 2006;Silva, 2007.…”
