“…Although chlorhexidine have been extensively used for biofilm control, its toxic potential to the mucosa contra-indicates its use for prolonged periods [13]. Brazilian red propolis hydroalcoholic extract at 3% has demonstrated a cytotoxic activity around 43% against fibroblasts monolayers (L-929) [16]. It is worth emphasizing that the implementation of an antimicrobial therapy must modulate the cell proliferation, so that when it debilitates the infection, there must not be great damage to the subjacent tissue.…”

“…The hydroalcoholic extract of Brazilian red propolis (Laboratory Edimel, Paraíba, Brazil) was obtained at initial concentration of 30% (w/v) and diluted in sterile saline to yield concentration of 3% (w/v), as determined previously [16]. The sterile saline was used as growth control of biofilm.…”

“…7 In efforts to prevent caries, several natural products have been analyzed against cariogenic bacteria. [8][9][10] Nudibranchs present an extensive chemical diversity with terpenes been the major metabolites isolated, however there are many nudibranchs yet to be studied. 11 The Brazilian coast has been poorly explored, with only 200 species reported.…”

“…It was previously observed that CHX is able to reduce lactic acid production after a short period of time as well, but it is not effective after long periods in vivo (GERARDU et al, 2007;GEORGIOS;VASSILIKI;SOTIRIOS, 2015). Martins et al (2018) found reduction of soluble and insoluble EPS production after daily treatment with CHX using monospecies biofilm, but nothing is known about the effect of a unique application under microcosm biofilm. It is likely that CHX, applied only once before microcosm biofilm formation, has no enough substantivity to interfere inside the cells, but only on their membrane affecting EPS production only.…”
