“…Abundance or lack of nutrients in the medium also affects the development of E. faecalis biofilms. In nutrient-rich environments, the biofilm presents regular morphology, whereas under nutrient-deprived conditions, the biofilm is irregular and sparse (8). In the present study, for both induction periods the culture medium was replaced every 48 hours to provide a constant source of nutrition and remove dead bacterial cells.…”

“…E. faecalis, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguinis, Candida albicans, and Prevotella nigrescens are able to adhere to gutta-percha or endodontic sealers (8), allowing biofilm formation (8)(9)(10)(11).…”

“…During coronal leakage, saliva could coat gutta-percha, which itself could lead to enhanced biofilm formation, as suggested for E. faecalis in a recent in vitro study by George et al (50). Baer and Maki (51) reported that Real Seal SE had no inhibitory effect on E. faecalis, which is in contrast to the results of Nawal et al (52), who reported that Real Seal SE had more antimicrobial efficacy than AH-Plus and GuttaFlow on E. faecalis.…”

“…This may be attributed to the glycoproteins and polysaccharides that adsorb on to the substrate surface, which then gets incorporated into the biofilm matrix (George et al . ). Saliva and serum constantly supply the biofilm cells with nutrients (Bowden & Li ).…”
