Research Abstract |
The new in situ biofilm model which can form the dental biofilm comprised of multiple bacterial species was made, and chronological changes of the dental biofilm were investigated. The bacterial count showed logarithmic growth till 24 hours after biofilm formation, and showed the gradual increase till 4days. Moreover, the effects of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), which has an antibacterial actvity, on oral bacterial biofilm were investigated. Significant decrease of ATP levels of bacteria was seen in EGCg-treated preformed biofilm. The inhibitory effect of EGCg on biofilm formation was also observed. It was suggested that the prevention mechanism of EGCg on biofilm formation differed from preformed biofilm inhibitory mechanism.
