Der Effekt einer Amyloglukosidase und Glukoseoxidase enthaltenden Zahnpaste auf Plaque-Bildung und Gingivitis

Zusammenfassung

Earlier studies showed that an antibacterial lactoperoxydase system in the saliva is activated by the application of a hydrogen paroxide-generating combination of enzymes: amyloglucosidase and glucose oxydase. The object of the present study was to investigate the effect of these enzymes in a test and control group of 29 subjects. The results showed the plaque-inhibiting effect of the enzyme paste. An influence on the gingiva could not be demonstrated.
