Microbial gutta-percha degradation shares common steps with rubber degradation by Nocardia nova SH22a.
Nocardia nova SH22a, a bacterium capable of degrading gutta-percha (GP) and natural rubber (NR), was used to investigate the GP degradation mechanism and the relations between the GP and NR degradation pathways. For this strain, a protocol of electroporation was systematically optimized, and an efficiency of up to 4.3 × 10(7) CFU per μg of plasmid DNA was achieved. By applying this optimized pr...
متن کاملBacterial degradation of poly(trans-1,4-isoprene) (gutta percha).
Gutta percha, the trans-isomer of polyisoprene, is being used for several technical applications due to its resistance to biological degradation. In the past, several attempts to isolate micro-organisms capable of degrading chemically pure poly(trans-1,4-isoprene) have failed. This is the first report on axenic cultures of bacteria capable of degrading gutta percha. From about 100 different hab...
متن کاملDegradation of trans-polyisoprene after root filling with thermoplasticized techniques.
AIM To evaluate ex vivo degradation of gutta-percha following six thermoplastic obturation techniques. METHODOLOGY Ninety human-extracted mandibular premolars were selected and divided randomly into nine groups for filling. Group 1: thermomechanical compaction for 3 s with Konne gutta-percha points (Konne Ind. e Com. de Mat. Odontol., Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil); Group 2: thermomechanical com...
متن کاملThe Effect of Storage Temperature on Mechanical Properties of Gutta-Percha and Resilon
OBJECTIVES To compare the mechanical properties of Resilon and gutta-percha cones after storing at three different temperatures. MATERIALS AND METHODS One-hundred standardized size 40/02 gutta-percha cones and 100 Resilon cones were randomly divided into four groups. The first group of the materials were tested immediately after receipt as the control group. The other three were stored in the...
متن کاملManagement of the latex hypersensitive patient in the endodontic office.
This case report documents the treatment of an endodontic patient who experienced a type 1 hypersensitivity reaction to latex. The dental, medical, and environmental aspects of treating latex allergic patients are reviewed. Because gutta-percha and latex rubber are similar compounds, the possible cross-reactivity of these materials is discussed.
