Resumen Actualmente, el odontólogo es uno de los profesionales de la salud con mayor riesgo de contagio de la COVID-19 debido a su contacto directo con la cavidad bucal. La alta exposición a los aerosoles, generados por los instrumentos rotatorios, en pacientes con la COVID-19, eleva el contacto con la carga viral del SARS-CoV-2 en los procedimientos de rutina. Se ha descrito que los colutorios bucales, previos a la atención odontológica, podrían ser soluciones efectivas para la reducción del contagio pese a su poca evidencia clínica. Los colutorios con cloruro de cetilpiridinio (CPC), peróxido de hidrógeno (H2O2), povidona yodada (PVP-I) y gluconato de clorhexidina (CHX) muestran un gran potencial para reducir la carga viral del SARS- CoV-2 en los aerosoles generados a partir de la saliva durante la consulta odontológica. Por lo expuesto, el presente artículo tuvo por objetivo hacer una revisión de la información científica actual sobre la relación del uso de los colutorios bucales con la disminución de la carga viral del SARS-CoV-2.
Abstract It is currently known that the dentist is one of the health professionals with the highest risk of contagion of COVID-19 due to its direct contact with the oral cavity. High exposure to aerosols generated by rotating instruments in COVID-19 patients increases contact with the SARS-CoV-2 viral load in routine procedures. It has been described that mouthwashes prior to dental care could be effective solutions to reduce contagion despite their little clinical evidence. Mouthwashes with cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), povidone-iodine (PVP-I) and chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) show great potential to reduce the viralload of SARS-CoV-2 in the aerosols generated from saliva during the dental visit. Therefore, the objective of this article was to review the current scientific information on the relationship of the use of mouthwashes with the decrease in the viral load of SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract Periodontopathogenic subgingival biofilm is the main etiological agent of periodontitis. Thus, a search for antimicrobials as adjuvant for periodontal treatment in the literature is intense. Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) is a well-known antimicrobial agent commonly used in mouthrinses. However, CPC effects on a complex biofilm model were not found over the literature. Therefore, the aim of this manuscript is to evaluate 0.075% CPC antimicrobial properties in a multispecies subgingival biofilm model in vitro. The subgingival biofilm composed by 31 species related to periodontitis was formed for 7 days, using the calgary device. The treatments with CPC and chlorhexidine (CHX) 0.12% (as positive control) were performed 2x/day, for 1 min, from day 3 until the end of experimental period, totaling 8 treatments. After 7 days of biofilm formation, biofilm metabolic activity was evaluated by a colorimetric reaction and biofilms microbial composition by DNA-DNA hybridization. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA with data transformed via BOX-COX followed by Dunnett post-hoc. Both CPC and CHX reduced biofilm metabolic activity in 60% and presented antimicrobial activity against 13 different species. Specifically, only CHX reduced levels of F.n. vicentii and P. gingivalis while only CPC reduced A. odontolyticus and A. israelli. CPC was as effective as CHX as antimicrobial through in vitro complex multispecies subgingival biofilm. However, future studies using in vivo models of experimental periodontal disease should be performed to prove such effect.
Resumo O biofilme subgengival periodontopatogênico é o principal agente etiológico da periodontite. Assim, a pesquisa de antimicrobianos como adjuvantes para o tratamento periodontal na literatura é intensa. Cloreto de cetilpiridínio (CPC) é um agente antimicrobiano comumente usado em enxaguatórios bucais. No entanto não foram encontrados na literatura estudos avaliando os efeitos do CPC em um modelo complexo de biofilme. Portanto, o objetivo deste artigo é avaliar as propriedades antimicrobianas do cloreto de cetilpiridinio 0,075% em um modelo de biofilme subgengival multiespécie in vitro. O biofilme subgengival composto por 31 espécies relacionadas à periodontite foi formado por 7 dias, utilizando o dispositivo calgary. Os tratamentos com CPC e clorexidina (CHX) 0,12% (controle positivo) foram realizados 2x/dia, por 1 min, do dia 3 até o final do período experimental, totalizando 8 tratamentos. Após 7 dias de formação do biofilme, a atividade metabólica do biofilme foi avaliada por reação colorimétrica e a composição microbiana dos biofilmes por hibridização DNA-DNA. A análise estatística foi realizada usando ANOVA com dados transformados via BOX-COX seguido do teste de Dunnett. Tanto o CPC como a CHX reduziram a atividade metabólica do biofilme em aproximadamente 60% e apresentaram atividade antimicrobiana contra 13 espécies diferentes. Especificamente, apenas os níveis de F.n. Vicentii e P. gingivalis foram reduzidos somente pelo tratamento com a CHX enquanto apenas o CPC reduziu A. odontolyticus e A. israelli. O CPC foi tão eficaz quanto o CHX como antimicrobiano através de biofilme subgengival complexo multiespecífico in vitro. No entanto, futuros estudos usando modelos in vivo de doença periodontal experimental devem ser realizados para comprovar tal efeito.

The resonance light scattering (RLS) spectral characteristics of the interaction between rose Bengal and mexiletine hydrochloride in the presence of cetylpyridinium bromide were investigated. A dual-wavelength resonance light scattering (DWO-RLS) method for the determination of mexiletine hydrochloride in drugs was established. In a weakly acidic solution, rose Bengal interacts with mexiletine hydrochloride and cetylpyridinium bromide to form a red ternary ion association complex, which led to a significantly enhanced resonance light scattering signal and produced two strong characteristic scattering peaks at 372 nm and 596 nm. In these two wavelengths the mass concentration of mexiletine hydrochloride was in the range of 0.004 to 0.65 mg·L-1 and had a good linear relationship with the resonance light scattering enhancement intensity (ΔIRLS), with detection limits of 0.003 2 mg·L-1 (372 nm) and 0.003 8 mg·L-1 (596 nm), respectively. When measured by the dual-wavelength resonance light scattering (DWO-RLS) technique, the detection limit was lower, only 0.001 8 mg·L-1. When the DWO-RLS method was applied to the determination of mexiletine hydrochloride in commercially available mexiletine hydrochloride tablets, and the recovery was 98.5%-103%, and the relative standard deviation was 2.0%-2.7%.
ABSTRACT
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different mouth washes and to study the effect of text message reminder on the oral health status of orthodontic patients treated with fixed appliances. Methods: This study was a clinical trial with pre-test and post-test control group design, conducted on 24 patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment aged 15-30 years. The patients randomly divided into two groups; one received a weekly telephone text massage reminder for the instructions of brushing and rinsing while the second group did not receive any messages. Ortho-plaque index and gingival index were used to evaluate the patient's oral hygiene status. The reading indices after brushing only were regarded as a control, then the patients were instructed to use two mouth washes, one containing sodium fluoride with cetylpyridinium chloride, the second containing chlorhexidine digluconate with cetylpyridinium chloride and Aloe Vera. Each one was used routinely for 4 weeks with the same amount and method. The washout period between the two types mouth washes was 4 weeks with a standardized toothbrush and paste. Results: Ortho-plaque index values decreased over the time between first, second and third visits. However, this index raised up at the fourth visit and again dropdown at the fifth visit. Similar results were detected for gingival index. Also, significant interaction between messages and the assessments was recorded for gingival index with a significant difference between the group of text messages and without text messages group (p<0.05). Conclusions: The results of this study showed that the combination of sodium fluoride with cetylpyridinium chloride was more potent for plaque control, while chlorhexidine digluconate with cetylpyridinium chloride and Aloe Vera combination showed a better gingival improvement. Moreover, the text messages reminder could enhance, but not replace direct oral hygiene instruction in orthodontic patients

Objective: To establish a simple,rapid and novel Rayleigh light scattering(RLS)method for rapid determination of mexiletine hydrochloride in drugs. Methods: In the presence of acid Tris-HCl medium and cetylpyri- dinium bromide,eosin Y reacted with mexiletine hydrochloride to form a ternary ion association complex with two charac- teristic scattering peaks by electrostatic attraction. The detection wavelengths were 368 and 586 nm. There was a linear relationship between the mexiletine hydrochloride concentration in a certain range and the Rayleigh light scattering en- hancement intensity(ΔIRLS)of the association complex. Single-wavelength Rayleigh scattering(SWO-RLS)method or dualwavelength Rayleigh light scattering(DWO-RLS)method was used to determine the content of mexiletine hydrochloride, and the mexiletine hydrochloride content was calculated according to the regression equation of standard curve. Results: The linear ranges of mexiletine hydrochloride were 0.005-0.65 mg/L(SWO-RLS method,368 nm),0.004-0.65 mg/L (SWO-RLS method,586 nm)and 0.004-0.65 mg/L(DWO-RLS method,368 nm+586 nm),respectisely. Detection lim- its were 0.0033(SWO-RLS method,368 nm),0.0040(SWO-RLS method,586 nm)and 0.0018 mg/L(DWO-RLS method, 368 nm+586 nm),respectisely. The recovery and relative standard deviation(RSD,n=5)for a SWO-RLS method were 98.6-103% and 1.4-1.8%,respectively(SWO-RLS method,368 nm). Conclusion: The method is simple,rapid, highly sensitive and high selectie.
ABSTRACT
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the anti-plaque and anti-gingivitis effects of two mouthwashes containing cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), in comparison to negative control mouthwash. One hundred and twenty subjects were randomly assigned to study groups: test (0.075% CPC and 0.28% zinc lactate), positive control (0.07% CPC) and negative control mouthwash without CPC. All volunteers were examined by a calibrated examiner for the Quigley-Hein Plaque Index (Turesky modification) and Löe-Silness Gingival Index (GI). Gingival severity was also measured by the percentage of sites with positive gingival bleeding. During six weeks, oral hygiene consisted of brushing twice daily with a toothbrush and toothpaste and rising with their assigned mouthwash. Plaque and gingival parameters were assessed at baseline, after four and six weeks of product use. Statistical analyses were performed separately for plaque and gingival indices, by ANOVA, paired t-test and ANCOVA (α < 0.05). After 4 and 6 weeks, all mouthwashes groups presented statistically significant reductions in plaque and gingival parameters as compared to baseline. In comparison to the positive control, the test group presented additional reductions in dental plaque of 19.8% and 16.8%, after 4 and 6 weeks, respectively. For GI, the additional reductions in the test group were 9.7% and 14.3%, at 4 and 6 weeks, respectively. The test group showed additional reduction of 35.3% and 54.5% in the gingival severity, at week 4 and 6, respectively. It is concluded that the mouthwash containing CPC and zinc lactate presents significant anti-plaque and anti-gingivitis effects as compared to positive and negative control mouthwashes.

Abstract The aim of this randomized, single blinded clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of a pre-procedural mouthwash containing cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), zinc lactate (Zn) and sodium fluoride (F) in the reduction of viable bacteria in oral aerosol after a dental prophylaxis with ultrasonic scaler. Sixty systemically healthy volunteers receiving dental prophylaxis were randomly assigned to one of the following experimental groups (15 per group): (i) rinsing with 0.075% CPC, 0.28% Zn and 0.05% F (CPC+Zn+F), (ii) water or (iii) 0.12% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX), and (iv) no rinsing. Viable bacteria were collected from different locations in the dental office on enriched TSA plates and anaerobically incubated for 72 hours. The colonies were counted and species were then identified by Checkerboard DNA–DNA Hybridization. The total number of colony-forming units (CFUs) detected in the aerosols from volunteers who rinsed with CPC+Zn+F or CHX was statistically significantly (p<0.05) lower than of those subjects who did not rinse or who rinsed with water. When all locations were considered together, the aerosols from the CPC+Zn+F and CHX groups showed, respectively, 70% and 77% fewer CFUs than those from the No Rinsing group and 61% and 70% than those from the Water group. The mean proportions of bacterial species from the orange complex were statistically significantly (p<0.05) lower in aerosols from the CPC+Zn+F and CHX groups compared with the others two groups. In conclusion, the mouthwash containing CPC+Zn+F, is effective in reducing viable bacteria in oral aerosol after a dental prophylaxis with ultrasonic scaler.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of 10 wt% benzalkonium chloride (TBBAC) or 10 wt% cetylpyridinium chloride (TBCPC) on the antimicrobial properties of the orthodontic adhesive primer, Transbond XT™ (TB). Antimicrobial activity was assessed using a zone of inhibition diffusion test and the release of the antimicrobial compounds was monitored by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Shear bond strength (SBS) was tested using bovine enamel. Control, TB, specimens failed to demonstrate intrinsic antibacterial activity at 1, 7 and 14 days; whereas, TBBAC and TBCPC showed antibacterial effects at all times. HPLC analysis indicated no significant differences in the release behaviour of TBBAC and TBCPC (ttest, p > 0.05), except for the 7day release which was higher for TBBAC (p < 0.05). By 14 days the extents of release were 27 ± 2% and 25 ± 5% of the total initial loading for TBBAC and TBCPC, respectively. The incorporation of 10 wt% BAC or CPC in Transbond XT™ adhesive primer also resulted in superior shear bond strength at 7 and 14 days (Fisher's LSD, p < 0.05) with no significant change in the mode of bracket failure under shear stress (Pearson's chisquared, p > 0.05) (AU)
El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el impacto del cloruro de benzalconio al 10% en peso del peso (TBBAC) o de cloruro de cetilpiridinio al 10% del peso (TBCPC) con propiedades antimicrobianas presentes en el adhesivo acondicionador ortodóncico, Transbond XT ™ (TB). La actividad antimi crobiana se evaluó usando una zona de prueba de difusión de inhibición y la liberación de los compuestos antimicrobianos se controló mediante cromatografía líquida de alta resolución (HPLC). La resistencia de adhesión al corte (SBS) se probó usando esmalte bovino. Las muestras control, TB no lograron demostrar actividad antibacteriana intrínseca a 1, 7 y 14 días; mientras que TBBAC y TBCPC mostraron efectos antibac terianos en todo momento. El análisis por HPLC no indicó diferencias significativas en el comportamiento de liberación de TBBAC y TBCPC (prueba t, p> 0,05), excepto en la liberación a los 7 días que fue más alta para TBBAC (p <0,05). A los 14 días, los grados de liberación fueron de 27 ± 2% y de 25 ± 5% de la carga inicial total para TBBAC y TBCPC, respectivamente. La incorpora ción de 10% en peso de BAC o CPC en el imprimador adhesivo Transbond XT ™ también dio como resultado una resistencia superior corte a los 7 y 14 días (Fisher's LSD, p <0.05) sin cambios significativos en el modo de falla del bracket bajo tensión de corte (Pearson's chicuadrado, p> 0.05) (AU)

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) and tranexamic acid (TXA) mouth rinse on patients with gingivitis. METHODS: This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, clinical trial included 45 healthy adults with gingivitis, who were randomized into 2 groups. The experimental group used a 0.05% CPC and 0.05% TXA mouth rinse, and the control group used a placebo mouth rinse. The following clinical indices were assessed at baseline, at 3 weeks, and at 6 weeks: the Turesky-Quigley-Hein plaque index (QHI), the Löe-Silness gingival index (GI), and bleeding on marginal probing (BOMP). The subjects used the mouth rinse during the experimental period for 20 seconds, 4–5 times daily (10 mL each time). RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the clinical indices between the groups at baseline. In the experimental group (CPC+TXA), a statistically significant improvement was evident in the QHI, GI, and BOMP at 3 and 6 weeks. These results were similar to those observed in the control group at 3 and 6 weeks, although the change in BOMP was not statistically significant in that group. At 6 weeks, the experimental group had a significantly lower mean score for the QHI than the control group. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that a CPC and TXA mouth rinse exhibited significant antiplaque and anti-gingivitis efficacy, and had a positive effect on bleeding control when used daily for 6 weeks.

ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: We evaluated the efficacy of a mouthwash containing potassium nitrate (KNO3) as its main component, along with sodium fluoride (NaF) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC). The primary endpoint was the relief of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) against the cold stimuli. The effects on other DH tests and periodontal inflammation were also evaluated. METHODS: We used a single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized design. A total of 82 patients with DH (40 in the test group, 42 placebo controls) were analyzed using visual analog scales (VASs) for a cold test, a tactile test, a compressive air test, and self-reported pain during daily activities, as well as clinical parameters including plaque index, gingival index, modified sulcular bleeding index (mSBI), gingival recession, and probing depth, which were collected at baseline and after four and six weeks of mouthwash use. RESULTS: VAS scores for cold sensations, tactile sensations, the compressive air test, and self-reported pain significantly decreased from baseline during the six weeks in both groups (P<0.01), and no significant differences between the groups were found. In male patients (10 in the test group and 7 in the control group), both groups showed significant reductions in VAS scores for the cold test over the six weeks, and greater reductions were found in the test group than in the control group between four and six weeks (P=0.01) and between baseline and six weeks (P<0.01). In addition, the mSBI in the test group significantly decreased from baseline during the six weeks (P<0.01), and the changes at four and six weeks from baseline were significantly greater in the test group compared to the control group (P=0.03 and P=0.02, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: A mouthwash containing a mixture of KNO3, NaF, and CPC reduced DH and gingival inflammation, however, the efficacy was comparable to the control group.

Aim: The aim of this in vitro study was to determine the antimicrobial activities of commonly used mouth rinses against different oral microorganisms. Methodology: Six commercially available mouth rinses (Colgate Total, Colgate Plax, Colgate Pro-argin, Oral-B Pro-expert, Listerine and Oderol) were used in this study. The antimicrobial activities of mouth rinses against Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175, Lactobacillus casei RSKK 900, L. acidophilus ATCC 11975 and Candida albicans ATCC 10231 were evaluated by disc diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration tests. Klorhex® was used as positive control. Experiments were repeated twice. Results: Colgate Total, Colgate Plax, Oral B Pro-expert and Oderol showed good antimicrobial activity against test microorganisms in comparison with Colgate Pro-argin and Listerine. Conclusion: Chlorhexidine and cetylpyridinium chloride containing mouth rinses were found more active than other products tested. Main motive of mouth rinses is removing the microorganisms from the mouth although their effectiveness depends on the formulation, concentration, quantity of ingredients and duration of rinsing.

ABSTRACT
This study was conducted in order to examine the effects of alcohol-free cetylpyridinium chloride drinking water additive and oral gel on clinical parameters related to periodontal disease in beagle dogs. This study was conducted with healthy 15 beagle dogs. Following a professional teeth cleaning procedure, dogs were divided into three groups. Dogs in the control group received nothing, those in the drinking water additive (DWA) group received 800 ml water with 15 ml of alcohol-free cetylpyridinium chloride drinking water additive daily, and those in the Oral gel (OG) group were treated with oral gel containing alcohol-free cetylpyridinium chloride and 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate daily. Clinical parameters, including plaque index (PI), calculus index (CI), and gingivitis index (GI) were evaluated at two and four weeks. Dogs in the DWA and OG groups had significantly less plaque than dogs in the control group at two and four weeks (P<0.01, P<0.05). And, at four weeks, CI was significantly lower in the OG group compared to the control group (P<0.05). On GI, similar scores were recorded for all groups during the experimental period. No significant difference was observed between the DWA group and the OG group. The effect of alcohol-free cetylpyridinium chloride drinking water additive was similar to the result for alcohol containing cetylpyridinium chloride mouthwash reported in a previous study. The effect in control of periodontal disease was better in the OG group because of additional chlorhexidine gluconate. However, use of drinking water additive will be more convenient for owners; thus, it will be more effective for achievement of long-term results.

Objective: To evaluate the formulations of 29 mouthrinses marketed in the city of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, in 2011, with respect to active principles - antimicrobial-agents - and other components. Methods: Data collection was performed in commercial wide circulation. Product labels were evaluated, information recorded, and afterwards data were complemented by consulting the scientific literature. Results: Of the three chlorhexidine-containing mouthrinses, two contained 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate or digluconate formulated in a free base concentration of chlorhexidine 0.067%, while the third did not report the concentration. Only two mouthwashes contained the antimicrobial agent triclosan at 0.03% concentration associated with PVA Gantrez copolymer at 0.2% concentration to stabilize it. Cetylpyridinium chloride is an antiseptic substance present in most mouthwashes available on the market, while products containing essential oils as active principles in their formulations, usually associate thymol, menthol, eucalyptol and methyl salicylate. Irrespective of the antibacterial agent, the mouthrinses typically have similar complementary substances, especially the addition of fluoride ions.Conclusion: There are a a wide variety of mouthrinses containing antimicrobial agents in a variety of different spectra on the Market, but no data are provided on other substances added to them. Among antimicrobial agents, the most frequently found in mouthwashes was cetylpyridinium chloride. It is important for the dentist to have adequate knowledge of the spectrum of action of each antimicrobial agent, in order to prescribe the most appropriate type in each case.
Objetivo: Avaliar a constituição de 29 enxaguatórios, comercializados na cidade do Salvador, Bahia, Brasil, em 2011, relacionado aos princípios ativos-agentes antimicrobianos - além dos demais componentes.Métodos: A coleta das informações foi realizada em estabelecimentos comerciais de ampla circulação. Para tanto foram avaliados os rótulos dos produtos, registradas as informações, seguindo-se de complementação dos dados mediante consultas à literatura científica. Resultados: Dos três enxaguatórios contendo clorexidina, dois contêm gluconato de clorexidina a 0,12% ou digluconato formulado para uma base livre de clorexidina na concentração de 0,067%, enquanto que o terceiro não informa a concentração. Apenas dois colutórios possuem o agente antimicrobiano triclosan na concentração de 0,03% associado ao copolímero PVA Gantrez na concentração de 0,2% para estabilizá-lo. O cloreto de cetilpiridínio é a substância anti-séptica que está presente na maioria dos enxaguatórios veiculados no mercado, enquanto que os produtos que contêm em suas formulações os óleos essenciais como princípios ativos, geralmente associam timol, mentol, eucaliptol e salicilato de metila. Independente do agente antibacteriano, os enxaguatórios em geral possuem substâncias complementares semelhantes, com destaque à adição o íon fluoreto. Conclusão: O mercado apresenta uma ampla variedade de enxaguatórios contendo relativa variedade de agentes antimicrobianos de diferentes espectros, contudo são limitadas as informações sobre as demais substâncias adicionadas aos mesmos; dentre os agentes antimicrobianos aquele encontrado com maior freqüência nos enxaguatórios é o cloreto de cetilpiridínio; é importante que o cirurgião-dentista tenha conhecimento adequado do espectro de ação de cada agente antimicrobiano a fim de prescrever o mais apropriado a cada caso.

The transportation of sputum samples may sometimes take more than one week which results in an increased contamination rate and loss of positive cultures. The current study was planned to analyze the recovery rate of mycobacteria from transported samples with and without Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC). Addition of CPC is useful for isolation of M. tuberculosis from sputum subjected to long-term storage.
ABSTRACT
Our understanding of dental plaque biofilm has evolved since the nonspecific plaque hypothesis that considered plaque as a nonspecific mass of native microorganisms that, because of lack of oral hygiene, builds up in proportions great enough to overcome the host resistance threshold and affect the tooth structure and tooth supporting tissues. A great diversity of microorganisms-over 700 species-was detected in the oral cavity, and evidence shows that the investigation of specific microorganisms or associations of microorganisms as etiological agents for periodontal diseases and caries is not a simplistic approach. Although clinical evidence shows that oral mechanical hygiene is fundamental to prevent and control caries and periodontal disease, it is important to highlight that optimal control is not achieved by most individuals. Thus the complementary use of chemotherapeutic agents has been investigated as a way to overcome the deficiencies of mechanical oral hygiene habits, insofar as they reduce both plaque formation and gingival inflammation, and represent a valid strategy to change the biofilm and maintain dental and periodontal health. The role of the dental professional is to monitor patients and offer them the best recommendations to preserve oral health throughout their life. With this in mind, chemical control should be indicated as part of daily oral hygiene, together with mechanical procedures, for all individuals who present supragingival and/or subgingival biofilm, taking into account age, physical and/or psychological limitations, allergies, and other factors.
