ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the effect of local application of the water soluble protein fraction,containing specific egg yolk antibody,on the recolonization of Streptococcus mutans.Methods:
Whole cells of inactivated streptococcus mutans were used as antigen to immunize bens,then water soluble protein fraction(WSF) was extracted from the eggs. Mouth wash containing 0.1 mg/ml of WSF was prepared and administered to 8 volunteers.The mouth wash was used once every two days for 2 weeks.Vehicle solution was used in other 6 volunteers as the control.S.mutans in saliva was monitored for 100 days.Results:
Before using the mouth washes,S.mutans level in saliva of the volunteers was 36.4%.S.mutans was removed by hibitane,it kept less than 3% in 100 days in the tested individuals,while 23%~37% in the controls.Conclusion:
The WSF containing specific egg yolk antibody can effectively prevent the recolonization of streptococcus mutans.
