ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
The present study aims to evaluate the antimicrobial property of Casiopeinas® copper- and ruthenium-based compounds against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotype b (ATCC® 43,718™), as well as the cytotoxicity on an osteoblasts cell line of both compounds. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
The antibacterial effect of the copper-based compounds (CasII-gly, CasIII-ia) and the ruthenium-based compound (RuN-6) at four different concentrations was evaluated as the inhibition ratio of the bacterial growth after 48 h under anaerobic conditions, and the cell viability was measured through resazurin assay.RESULTS:
The copper- and ruthenium-based compounds used for this assay were (CasII-gly, CasIII-ia, and RuN-6), showing inhibitory activity between 39 and 62% compared to the antibiotic employed as control 66%. Cell viability was established between 61 and 96%.CONCLUSIONS:
Casiopeinas® and ruthenium showed dose and time dependent, inhibitory activity on A. actinomycetemcomitans, and low toxicity on cells (osteoblast) underexposure. The compound CasII-gly showed the best antimicrobial effect, and it could be considered a possible antimicrobial agent in periodontal therapy.Palavras-chave
