Antibacterial Effect of Java Turmeric Ethanol Extract Against Dual-Species Streptococcus Mutans and Streptococcus Sanguinis Biofilm (In Vitro)

Abstract: Objectives:The minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Java turmeric (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) ethanol extract is 25% against Streptococcus mutans and 15% against Streptococcus sanguinis as single species. This study aimed to examine the antibacterial effect of Java turmeric ethanol extract against S. mutans and S. sanguinis as dual-species. S. mutans and S. sanguinis compete against each other to obtain nutrients. Methods:The antibacterial effect of Java turmeric ethanol extract against dual-species St… Show more

“…To determine the antibacterial efficacy between the individual and different combination of drugs, the following combinations, namely CEF+TR; CEF+ME and the clinical strain of MRSA have been studied in the following assay using the checkerboard method. Aliquots of log phase bacterial culture (turbidity of 0.5 McFarland standard) were transferred to microtiter plates containing tested concentrations of drugs as inferred from the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay [9,10]. The combination of different concentrations was used in the study.…”

“…Streptococcus mutans is a pathogen bacterium associated with dental caries and cavities. S. mutans bacteria form a colony on teeth surface as dental plaque and convert extracellular polysaccharide to lactic acid through fermentation and eventually caused teeth caries [2,3]. Toothpaste and mouthwash which are used in mouth care can contain natural components as thymol or synthetic components like chlorhexidine; however, those containing synthetic ingredients are usually associated with teeth staining [4,5].…”
