abstract

introduction: one of the major contributing factors, which may cause failure of endodontic treatment, is the presence of residual microorganisms in the root canal system. for years, most dentists have been using calcium hydroxide (ch) as the intracanal medicament between treatment sessions to eliminate remnant microorganisms. reducing the size of ch particles into nanoparticles enhances the penetration of this medicament into dentinal tubules and increases their antimicrobial efficacy. this in vitro study aimed to compare the cytotoxicity of ch nanoparticles and conventional ch on fibroblast cell line using the mosmann’s tetrazolium toxicity (mtt) assay. methods and materials: this study was conducted on l929 murine fibroblast cell line by cell culture and evaluation of the direct effect of materials on the cultured cells. materials were evaluated in two groups of 10 samples each at 24, 48 and 72 h. at each time point, 10 samples along with 5 positive and 5 negative controls were evaluated. the samples were transferred into tubes and exposed to fibroblast cells. the viability of cells was then evaluated. the two-way anova was used for statistical analysis and the level of significance was set at 0.05. results: cytotoxicity of both materials decreased over time and for conventional ch was lower than that of nanoparticles. however, this difference was not statistically significant ( p >0.05). conclusion: the cytotoxicity of ch nanoparticles was similar to that of conventional ch.

Toxicity Effect of Silver Nanoparticles on Mice Liver Primary Cell Culture and HepG2 Cell Line

Nano-silver (AgNP) has biological properties which are significant for consumer products, food technology, textiles and medical applications (e.g. wound care products, implantable medical devices, in diagnosis, drug delivery, and imaging). For their antibacterial activity, silver nanoparticles are largely used in various commercially available products. Thus, the use of nano-silver is becoming ...

The evaluation of cytotoxicity of suab1 on l929 fibroblast cell line and the comparison with formocresol

Formocresol is common treatment in exposed pulp of primary teeth at caries, trauma and damaged with cavity preparation. Although, clinical and radiographic success and good clinical results are observed, dentistry societies are still searching for materials interchangeable with formocresol. Suab1 is a phytochemical agent that was selected because of its anti- bleeding effect. In this study, we ...
