The Antimicrobial Activity of an Atmospheric-Pressure Room-Temperature Plasma in a Simulated Root-Canal Model Infected With Enterococcus Faecalis

The Antimicrobial Activity of an Atmospheric-Pressure Room-Temperature Plasma in a Simulated Root-Canal Model Infected With Enterococcus Faecalis

The antimicrobial activity of an atmospheric-pressure room-temperature plasma jet on simulated root canals infected with Enterococcus faecalis is studied. The samples are divided randomly into 12 experimental groups and one control group. All experimental groups exhibited a significant reduction in...

Zusammenfassung:The antimicrobial activity of an atmospheric-pressure room-temperature plasma jet on simulated root canals infected with Enterococcus faecalis is studied. The samples are divided randomly into 12 experimental groups and one control group. All experimental groups exhibited a significant reduction in viable bacteria compared with the control group ( P
