The Complexing Action of Eugenol on Sound Dentin

Abstract

SYNOPSIS IN INTERLINGUA

LE ACTION COMPLEXATORI DE EUGENOL SUPER DENTINA NORMAL.-Eugenol a oxydo de zinc (EOZ) in applicationes clinic mollifica le dentina. Eugenol o aqua esseva addite in un proportion de 10:1 per peso a dentina in sectiones de 150 μ. Le concentration de Ca in eugenol accresceva a 21,5 mg per 100 ml intra 6 septimanas. In le systema de controlo a aqua le correspondente valor esseva 3 mg per 100 ml. Mixturas de EOZ esseva applicate a sectiones de dentina e le blocos de EOZ esseva tincturate pro Ca++. Le acceptation de Ca⁺⁺ esseva positive e le controlo esseva negative. Iste datos demonstra le capacitate de eugenol e de EOZ de remover Ca++ ab dentina, possibilemente con le formation de un chelato.
