- W3006758903 abstract "Background and Objectives . Multiple antibacterial agents have been mixed and used as an intracanal medicament-like modified triple antibiotic paste (MTAP) to eliminate Enterococcus faecalis ( EF ), which has been most frequently identified in the cases of failed root canal treatment and periapical lesions. This study is aimed at using a single antibacterial agent, nitrofurantoin (Nit), as an experimental intracanal medicament paste against different clinical isolates of EF bacteria and at comparing its antimicrobial efficacy with MTAP. Materials and Methods . Three strains of EF (S1, S2, and S3) were clinically isolated. A total of 198 straight single-rooted human teeth were collected and divided randomly into three main groups: group N (Nit) (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M1><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>90</mml:mn></mml:math>), group M (MTAP) (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M2><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>90</mml:mn></mml:math>), and group W (distilled water) (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M3><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>18</mml:mn></mml:math>). The main groups were subdivided into three subgroups according to the strain of EF : in groups N and M, subgroups S1, S2, and S3 (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M4><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>30</mml:mn></mml:math>), while in group W, subgroups S1, S2, and S3 (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M5><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>6</mml:mn></mml:math>). Then, each subgroup of N and M was divided into five groups (<mml:math xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M6><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>6</mml:mn></mml:math>) according to the concentrations of Nit or MTAP (6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 mg/mL). The colony-forming unit (CFU) of EF from the canal lumen and dentinal chips was measured. Results . Nit could eradicate S1, S2, and S3 completely with concentrations of 6.25, 12.5, and 25 mg/mL, respectively, while MTAP showed complete eradication of the three strains only at 25 mg/mL. In all the groups, it was found that the CFU counts of EF in the dentinal chips were higher than those in the root canal lumen. Conclusion . At the concentration of 25 mg/mL, the Nit paste is effective in eradicating EF completely when it is used as an intracanal medicament." @default.
