Abstract: Ultramicrochemical methods were used to assay lactic dehydrogenase, (L.D.H.) malic dehydrogenase (M.D.H.) and glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G‐6‐P.D.H.) in biopsy specimens obtained from palatal mucosa and gingiva of young human volunteers. Half the specimens examined came from individuals who had used a chlorhexidine containing mouthrinse for 18 months and the other half from individuals using a placebo mouthrinse. There were no statistically significant differences in enzyme activity between the two grou… Show more
