AIM: This study was performed to investigate the possibility to photodynamically inactivate Gram-negative bacteria without intracellular uptake of the photosensitizer. The efficiency of the photodynamic growth inhibition of Escherichia coli (SURE2) was proved in a comparative study of a neutral and

Bacterial biofilms and dentin structural changes are some of the major challenges in the management of infected dentin tissue. This study characterized a photosensitizer-conjugated chitosan with enhanced photodynamic efficacy against dental biofilms, as well as the ability to reinforce the postinfec

A lingering concern with restored root-filled teeth is the loss of structural integrity of the dentin and dentin-sealer interface over time. We hypothesized that crosslinking of dentin collagen with simultaneous incorporation of a biopolymer into collagen matrix would improve its structural stabilit
