The antibacterial effects of zinc ion migration from zinc-based glass polyalkenoate cements.
Zinc-based glass polyalkenoate cements have been synthesised and their potential use in orthopaedic applications investigated. Zinc ions were released from the materials in a rapid burst over the first 24 h after synthesis, with the release rate falling below detectable levels after 7 days. Cement-implanted bone samples were prepared and the released zinc was shown, using energy dispersive X-ra...
متن کاملZinc and silver glass polyalkenoate cements: an evaluation of their antibacterial nature.
A biofilm is an accumulation of micro-organisms and their extracellular products forming a structured community on a surface. Biofilm formation on medical devices has severe health consequences as bacteria growing in this lifestyle are tolerant to both host defence mechanisms and antibiotic therapies. However, silver and zinc ions inhibit the attachment and proliferation of immature biofilms. T...
متن کاملComparison of Antibacterial Properties of Commercial Bone Cements and Fillers with a Zinc- based Glass Polyalkenoate Cement
Postoperative infection following invasive surgical procedures is a significant cause for concern, particularly in spinal reconstructive surgery. The objective of the study was to compare the antibacterial efficacy of a novel zinc based glass polyalkenoate cement (ZnGPC) based on 0.04SrO-0.12CaO-0.36ZnO-0.48SiO2 glass, to a number of commercially available bone cements and fillers including Sim...
متن کاملIn-vitro Comparison of the Antimicrobial Properties of Glass Ionomer Cements with Zinc Phosphate Cements
White spot lesions are observed in nearly 50% of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. Long-lasting antibacterial properties of orthodontic cements can reduce this phenomenon. The aim of this research was to compare antimicrobial activity of three commercial glass ionomer cements with three commercial zinc phosphate cements, over time, against streptococcus mutans and candida albicans...
