Objectives: This study aimed to identify porcine DNA in prosthodontic materials using Real-Time PCR.Materials and methods: Eighteen prosthodontic materials: three irreversible hydrocolloids, three elastomers, three denture adhesives, three soft denture linings, three temporary crowns, and three denture bases materials were used as the samples. It was conducted in two stages. First, extraction of dental material's DNA and the second was Real-Time PCR analysis based on amplification curve and Ct score in yellow and green channel. Results: The sample analysis based on green channel demonstrated that all materials did not contain porcine DNA, however, 11 of 18 samples (DA-01, DA-02, DA-03, SDL-02, DB-01, DB-02, TC-03, IH-02, EM-01, EM-02, and EM-03) contained vertebrate DNA.Conclusions: All prosthodontic materials tested were not containing porcine. The halal statues of the materials were still unclear.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
