This article introduced the thoughts and practice of implementing microbiology course reform for stomatology majors in school of stomatology and department of microbiology in Tianjin medical university.To make the introductory courses more suitable and meet the needs of stomatology better,our microbiology classes included the basic knowledge of oral microoganism.

BACKGROUND:How to construct tissue-engineered periodontal tissue through efficient combination of scaffold materials and seed cells in vitro is an important direction of current research.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the cellseeding efficiency of traditional static seeding method and col agen enclose seeding method to select a more appropriate seeding method for cellattach.
METHODS:Gingival fibroblasts from dogs at certain concentrations were seeded onto polylactic acid-chitosan-gelatin scaffolds with gradient and uniform pore sizes using the traditional static seeding method and col agen enclose seeding method, respectively. The number of adherent cells was counted to calculate the seeding efficiency for data comparison. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The cellseeding efficiency of the col agen enclose seeding method was higher than that of the traditional static seeding method (P<0.01). The col agen enclose seeding method can significantly improve the seeding efficiency and increase cellinitial concentration on the scaffold, and this method can be used for gingival tissue engineering.
