Potencial antimicrobiano de extratos derivados da romã (Punica granatum L.) contra patógenos relacionados à infecção endodôntica / Antimicrobial potential of extracts from pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) against endodontic pathogens

Gallas, Júlia Adornes 18 January 2018 (has links)
A biodiversidade da flora brasileira abre a possibilidade de estudos com extratos naturais para formulações de soluções irrigantes bactericidas e biocompatíveis para uso na terapia endodontia. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar o potencial antimicrobiano de extratos da Punica granatum L. (P. granatum) contra micro-organismos presentes nas infecções do sistema de canais radiculares. Foram preparados extratos hidroetanólicos (50% etanol e 50% água) na concentração de 100 mg/mL, a partir da liofilização da casca, folha e semente da P. granatum, contra os seguintes microrganismos: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis e Candida albicans. Os grupos foram distribuídos de acordo com o extrato de P. granatum: G1 etanol 50% (controle positivo), G2 - hipoclorito de sódio 1% (NaOCl) (controle negativo), G3 Extrato da casca, G4 Extrato da folha, G5 Extrato da semente. A capacidade antimicrobiana dos extratos foi avaliada pelo teste de difusão em ágar, concentração inibitória mínima (CIM) e concentração bactericida/fungicida mínima (CBM/CFM). Os dados, em mm, foram analisados por Analise de Variância e teste de Tukey (p<0,05). Pelo teste de difusão em ágar, verificou-se que, independentemente do micro-organismo, o maior halo de inibição foi encontrado para o controle positivo (30,76 &plusmn; 4,73 a), seguido da casca e folha, que não apresentaram diferença significante entre si (23,32 &plusmn; 3,65 b e 21,08 &plusmn; 2,28 b, respectivamente). A semente apresentou o menor halo de inibição microbiana (17,83 &plusmn; 6,92 c) (p<0,05). Na comparação isolada para cada micro-organismo, os extratos da casca e folha apresentaram atividade antimicrobiana semelhante ao NaOCl para a bactéria S. mutans (p=0,0000), além de exercerem bom efeito antimicrobiano sobre os demais micro-organismos. Para as bactérias E. faecalis e E. coli, os extratos (casca, folha e semente) apresentaram halos de inibição semelhantes entre si (p>0,05), porém inferiores aos obtidos pelo controle positivo. Com relação a CIM e CBM/CFM, encontrou-se efeito bactericida e bacteriostático para todos os extratos. Verificou-se maior zona de inibição para o extrato da casca contra a C. albicans<i/> (CIM = 6,25 mg/mL e CFM = 12,5 mg/mL), seguido da S. aureus (CIM e CBM =12,5 mg/mL). Concluiu-se que, os extratos hidroalcoólicos de P. Granatum L. apresentaram atividade antimicrobiana contra os patógenos orais comuns nas infecções endodontias, com a maior atividade para os obtidos da casca e folha / Brazilian flora biodiversity opens possibility of studies with natural extracts for bactericidal and biocompatible solutions for use in endodontic therapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial effect of Punica granatum L. (pomegranate) against pathogens of infections from root canal system. Ethanolic solutions (50% ethanol and 50% water) were prepared in 100 mg/mL of lyophilized extracts derived from the peel, seed and leaf of pomegranate, against the following oral microorganisms: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans. The groups were distributed according to the extract tested for root canal irrigation: G1 - 50% ethanol (positive control), G2 - 1% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) (negative control), G3 - Solution of the peel, G4 Seed solution, G5 - Solution of the leaf. The antimicrobial capacity of the extracts was evaluated by the agar diffusion test, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal / fungicidal concentration (MCB/MFC). The data were analyzed by ANOVA (extracts and microorganisms) and Tukey test (p<0.05). By the diffusion test in agar, it was verified that, independently of the microorganism, the largest inhibition zone was found for the positive control (30.76 &plusmn; 4.73 a), followed by peel and leaf, which did not presented significant difference between them (23.32 &plusmn; 3.65 and 21.08 &plusmn; 2.28 b, respectively). The seed had the lowest of microbial inhibition zone (17.83 &plusmn; 6.92 c) (p<0.05). In the isolated comparison for each microorganism, peel and leaf extracts presented antimicrobial activity similar to NaOCl for S. mutans (p = 0.0000), besides having a good antimicrobial effect on the other microorganism. For the E. faecalis and E. coli, the extracts (peel, leaf and seed) had similar inhibition zones (p>0.05), but lower than those obtained by the positive control. Regarding MIC and MBC/MFC, it was found a bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect for all extracts. The P. granatum peel extract had greater inhibition zone against C. albicans (MIC = 6.25 mg/mL and MFC = 12.5 mg/mL), followed by S. aureus (MIC and MBC = 12.5 mg/mL). It may be concluded that the hydroalcoholic extracts of P. granatum L. presented antimicrobial activity against oral pathogens common in endodontic infections, with the highest activity for those obtained from the peel and leaf

Řízení a vizualizace provozních veličin fytotronových komor / Controlling and visualization of operational parameters of growth chambers

Baudyš, Adam January 2013 (has links)
In the thesis I outlined principles and ways of physical values regulation with the goal of the most efficient cultivation of the plants. Pursuant to identified facts I chose and programmed way of growth cabinet control in PLC AMiNi2DS. To access relevant data and possibilities of adjustment I also created SCADA and HMI. In conclusion I created manual for operating the device and software for acquainted people.

An in-vitro study evaluating the efficacy of the ultrasonic bypass system™, using different intracanal irrigating solutions

Barney, Jason Phillip, 1975- January 2010 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / This in-vitro, prospective, randomized study microscopically compared the debridement efficacy of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) using the Ultrasonic Bypass System and different irrigating protocols. Eighty extracted maxillary anterior teeth were randomly assigned to four groups. Teeth were instrumented using EndoSequence rotary instrument system and treated with passive ultrasonic irrigation with different irrigating regimens for one minute. Group one (control) was treated with hand/rotary instrumentation. Group two was treated with hand/rotary instrumentation followed by a one-minute PUI using the Ultrasonic Bypass System with 6.0-percent NaOCl. Group three was treated with hand/rotary instrumentation followed by a one-minute PUI using the Ultrasonic Bypass System with 17-percent EDTA. Group four was treated with hand/rotary instrumentation followed by a one-minute PUI using the Ultrasonic Bypass System with 30 seconds of 6.0-percent NaOCl and 30 seconds of 17-percent EDTA. Teeth were sectioned longitudinally and each half was divided into three equal parts from the anatomic apex. The half with the most visible part of the apex was used for SEM evaluation. A scoring system for debris and smear layer removal was used. Statistical analysis was performed using a Kruskal-Wallis test, which determines if there are any differences among the four groups. Following this test, a Wilcoxon Rank Sum test was used to compare each pair of groups. The addition of a one-minute PUI with the Ultrasonic Bypass System significantly enhanced the removal of smear layer when compared with the hand/rotary instrumentation with conventional irrigating solutions. The Ultrasonic Bypass System when used with the combination of 6.0-percent NaOCl and 17-percent EDTA after hand/rotary instrumentation significantly removed smear layer at the coronal, middle, and apical areas of a tooth when compared with all other groups. A one-minute PUI with the Ultrasonic Bypass System combined with NaOCl and EDTA is significantly better in smear removal and ultimately will result cleaner canal wall.
