[Efficiency of combined action of a chemical disinfectant and plasma sterilization on stomatological instruments and casts]. / Effektivnost' kombinirovannogo vozdeistviia khimicheskogo dezinfektanta i plazmennoi sterilizatsii na stomatologicheskie instrumenty i slepochnye materialy.

The efficiency of combined treatment of dentures by argon plasma and chemical disinfectant Ocadez is compared using anaerobic culturing of oral bacteria and polymerase chain reaction with hepatitis B, C, and D virus primers. Different protocols of processing dental instruments and casts directly after dentist's manipulations with outpatients were tried and model experiments with hepatitis viruses were carried out. The optimal protocol of plasma sterilization is as follows: 10 min at 86-90 degrees C after treatment with Ocadez or 15 min without additional chemical treatment.
