Growth Inhibition of Streptococcus from the Oral Cavity by [alpha]-Amyrin Esters

Growth Inhibition of Streptococcus from the Oral Cavity by [alpha]-Amyrin Esters

Five terpenoids were tested by the macrodilution broth method to determine their inhibition activity on cariogenic bacterial growth. In general, α-, β-amyrin and α-amyrin phenylacetate proved to be active, reducing the bacterial viability to less than 20%.
