Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study is based on the bactericidal effect of FEL on periodontopathic bacteria such as Porphyromonas gingivalis and Escherichia coli as endemic Gram-negative bacteria, and the effect of infrared free electron laser on periodontopathic bacteria was evaluated by analyzing the infrared absorption wavelengths of various bacteria and irradiating them with various wavelengths determined. The results showed that the laser's bactericidal effect was significantly enhanced by irradiation at wavelengths up to 6.62micrometre. As a result, the antibacterial effect was observed at the wavelength of 6.62micrometre, which corresponds to the C-H stretching vibration mode. The 6.62micrometre irradiation group was the most superior to the other wavelengths in inhibiting bacterial growth.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
赤外自由電子レーザー (FEL) は中赤外領域を発振領域とする波長可変のレーザーであり,その波長域は分子の指紋領域をほぼ全域網羅しているため,殺菌作用のみならず,LPSなど細菌特有な分子の不活化が期待できるが,歯周病治療への応用はされていない。本研究課題では,FEL が照射範囲にある組織に対して温度変化をおこすことなく,人体に為害作用が少ない光線力学療法が可能であることが示唆された。
