Objectives: The aim of this cross‐sectional study was to evaluate the periodontal status and oral microbiological patterns a population with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), undergoing haemodialysis (HD). Design: This study, involving 52 patients from Nephrology Department matched control subjects. Materials methods: subjects had clinical examination; subgingival plaque samples were taken analysed using semiquantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test detect Porphyromas gingivalis ,...

Background Herpesviral-bacterial synergism may play a role in periodontitis and peri-implantitis etiopathogenesis. Periapical (PP) lesions can predict future apical complications. Purpose This pilot study aimed to substantiate herpesviral-bacterial coinfection symptomatic (SP) asymptomatic (AP) PP assess associations with periodontopathogen salivary contamination patients receiving implants. Materials Methods Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based identification was performed on granulation...

Background: The oral occurrence of putative microbial pathogens in humans has been documented health and disease. presence periodontopathogens patients with a history periodontal disease may have negative impact on bone regeneration. This investigation was conducted to confirm the particles harvested intraorally for maxillary sinus augmentation assess clinical radiographic outcomes 6 12 months after augmentation. Methods: Culture polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based identification were...

Background: Bone microbial contamination can impair osteogenesis. Human herpesviruses‐associated vasculitis cause vascular damage within the osseous graft and host. This study is conducted to substantiate specific assess impact 6 months after sinus augmentation. Methods: Culture‐ polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based identification were done on harvested bone particles unstimulated whole saliva in a group of 30 patients undergoing maxillary Patients divided into two groups: those with...

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that Manuka honey (MH) chelates iron and promotes an iron-limiting environment, which contributes its antimicrobial activity.Employing a ferrozine-based assay, we observed MH is chelator depletes from solution. Siderophores are small molecules bind ferric (III) with high affinity their levels upregulated by bacteria under conditions. We demonstrated quantitating siderophore production Escherichia coli Pseudomonas aeruginosa treated sub-minimum...
