Abstract:Objective:To determine the bacteriostasis effects of Extract of Boswellin on two kinds of periodontal pathogens.Methods:Dilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration of extract of Boswellin for Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg),Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn).The antimicrobial characters of Extract of Boswellin and 0.2% Gel Gingival hyaluronic acid on the two kinds of pathogens were evaluated by disk diffusion method.Results:The MIC of Boswellin extract on Pg and Fn was 0.325%,and the MBC of Boswellin extract was 0.325% for Pg,and MBC for Fn was 2.5%.Extract of Boswellin showed different antimicrobial effects on the two periodontal pathogens (Pg >Fn).The best antimicrobial concentration of Extract of Boswellin were 5%.The antimicrobial effect of 10% Extract of Boswellin was better than that of GHA on Pg (P<0.05).Conclusions:Extract of Boswellin have inhibition effect on Pg and Fn,and the best antibacterial concentration was 5%.The Extract of Boswellin has better antibacterial effect on Pg than Fn.
