Cytotoxicity of urethane dimethacrylate composites before and after aging and leaching.

چکیده
The in vitro cytotoxicity of urethane dimethacrylate composites cured at different times by visible light and after different aging times and extraction treatments was evaluated using succinic dehydrogenase activity in the mitochondria of a fibroblastic cell line to reflect cell viability. In addition, extractable chemicals associated with cell response were identified. The composite samples were tested untreated, polished, or extracted with water or 75% ethanol-water. Balb/c 3T3 fibroblasts were used as the cell culture system while MTT-formazan production was used as the toxicity parameter. Cell viability was calculated as a percentage of Teflon controls. Identification of the chemicals was measured by extracting the composites with 75% ethanol-water, separating the extract by HPLC, and identifying the fractions with mass spectroscopy. In general, cell viability increased continuously with curing time for differently treated samples at high aging times (288 h) while it decreased when the composites were not aged (0 h). In addition, for 75% ethanol or water-extracted composites, cell viability increased within the first 24 h of aging and reached a plateau after 72 h. Lowest cytotoxicity occurred when the samples were extracted with the 75% ethanol solution. The highest cytotoxic effects were found when the samples were untreated. Slightly reduced cytotoxic effects were seen with polished composites. The results suggest that curing the light-activated composites for a minimum of 150 s and post-curing for 24 h is required to attain comparable biocompatibility with the Teflon control. Removing the oxygen-inhibited layer from these composites decreased the cytotoxicity by 33% while extracting the composites with 75% ethanol-water decreased it by 77%. Chemicals released from the surface accounted for approximately 40% of cellular response while about 60% of the response was due to chemical components released from the bulk. The primary leachable component from the composites was UDMA monomer. Small quantities of 1,6 hexane diol methacrylate, camphoroquinone, and 2,4,6-tritertiarybutyl phenol also were found.
