Enhancing antimicrobial properties of a resin-based material via incorporation of a powdered phytotherapeutic extract: an in vitro experimental study
Key Points
The study aims to assess the antimicrobial potential of resin-based materials by incorporating powdered Braúna extract.
In vitro experimental design to test antimicrobial properties
Incorporation of 10 wt% to 20 wt% Braúna extract into resin-based materials
Comparison of antimicrobial effects with and without the extract
Addition of Braúna extract enhances antimicrobial properties significantly
Concentrations between 10 wt% and 20 wt% show promising results
Demonstrated effectiveness against various types of microorganisms
Abstract
Adding powdered Braúna extract between 10 wt% and 20 wt% is a promising alternative to provide an antimicrobial function to RBMs.
