[Comparative study of injuring action of the preparations used for chemical-mechanic removal of carious dentine].

The destruction of human serum albumin was studied under the influence of the preparations used for chemical-mechanic removal of carious dentine (GK-101 and Caricleans, gel #2) and model systems containing sodium hypochlorite and amino compounds. Control contained hydroxide and sodium chloride but not hypochlorite. The degree of albumin destruction was determined by the amount of low molecular weight fragments precipitated by phosphotungstic acid but not by trichloracetic acid. From the results of the study the conclusion was made that in order to reduce the injuring action of hypochlorite upon dental tissues and soft tissues of oral cavity it is more preferable to use systems containing the addition of neutral and basic amino compounds.
