Abstract:
Objective To determine the antibacterial activities of the alginate impression materials impregnated with carboxymethyl chitosan.Methods Carboxymethyl chitosan with different replace positions,replace degrees,relative molecular masses and deacetyl degrees were added into the dental alginate impression materials by different ratios.Their antibacterial activities were determined using a method according to the Chinese and Japanese standards for testing antibacterial efficacy of antibacterial materials.Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC6538 were used in this test.Results O-carboxymethyl chitosan showed best antibacterial activity.O-carboxymethyl chitosan added into the alginate impression materials had the best antimicrobial activity on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in the ratios of 1% and 1.4%,respectively.Its inhibitory bacteria rate could reach 99.99% along with the increase of deacetyl degree.Conclusion The alginate impression materials impregnated with carboxymethyl chitosan have a favorable antimicrobial activity.
