ABSTRACT

Objective:

The long-term success of root canal treatment is ultimately related to the effective debridement and disinfection of the root canal system. Hence, the irrigants play an important role in achieving the good penetrability and bactericidal activity. The present study was mainly aimed at evaluating the invitro antimicrobial efficacy of Novel Ethanolic Extract of Morinda Citrifolia by agar well diffusion and broth dilution methods. Material and

methods:

The antibacterial effect of Ethanolic Extract of Morinda Citrifolia was investigated against Enterococcus Faecalis (E. Faecalis). Agar well diffusion and broth dilution methods were used to determine the Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC)

Results:

The MIC of Ethanolic Extract of Morinda Citrifolia extract was found to be 12.5 mg/ml and the MBC was found to be 25 mg/ml

Conclusion:

Novel Ethanolic Extract of Morinda Citrifolia possess antimicrobial activity against E.Faecalis. But still, future studies are needed. (AU)
RESUMO

Objetivo:

O sucesso a longo prazo do tratamento de canais radiculares está intimamente relacionada com a efi cácia do debridamento e desinfecção do Sistema do canal radicular. Consequentemente, os irrigantes têm um importante papel na capacidade de penetração e atividade bactericida. O presente estudo teve como objetivo principal a avaliação in vitro da efi cácia antimicrobiana do novo extrato etanólico de Morinda Citrifolia por meio dos métodos de difusão em ágar ou de diluição em caldo. Material e

métodos:

O efeito antibacteriano do extrato etanólico de Morinda Citrifolia foi investigado contra Enterococcus Faecalis (E. Faecalis). Os métodos de diluição em ágar e de diluição em caldo foram usados para determinar a concentração inibitória minima (MIC) e concentração bactericida minima (MBC).

Resultados:

O MIC do extrato etanólico de Morinda Citrifolia foi obtido na concentração de 12.5mg/ml e a MBC foi de 25mg/ml

Conclusão:

O novo extrato etanólico de Morinda Citrifolia apresenta atividade antimicrobiana contra E.Faecalis. Porém, futuros estudos são necessários. (AU)
