Abstract

Streptococcus sanguinis (formerly S. sanguis) is a Gram-positive, facultative anaerobe,  nonmotile , normal  inhabitant of the human oral cavity, and  a member of  the viridans group of streptococci. Among the streptococcus, S. sanguinis is a  primary colonizer in the human tooth surface or it is recognize as a ‘pioneer’ by forming dental plaque. The aim of this paper is to review the role of Streptococcus sanguinis  in the adherence to and  invasion of  human tissues.  S. sanguinis  has been reported  that it is associated  with healthy  tooth  surfaces  but not with caries. S. sanguinis  tend to involved in an interspecies interactions with Streptococcus mutans, which is known as  competition/coexistence within dental biofilm.  In their colonization, this bacteria used enzyme sortase A (SrtA) to cleave  LPXTG-containing proteins sequence and  anchored  the  cell wall, while virulence factors  in infective endocarditis  involved housekeeping functions such as cell wall synthesis, amino acid and nucleic acid synthesis, and the ability to survive under anaerobic conditions.

Abstract

Honey may be contaminated by microorganisms during its harvesting, processing, and packaging. Honey selected for clinical purposes must safe, sterile, and contain antimicrobial activity, so it must be evaluated using laboratory testing. The aim of this descriptive laboratory study was to isolate and identify the bacterial contaminant in the traditional-packed honey dealing with the use of honey for medical purposes. the colony forming units of honey sample cultured on blood agar were counted using Stuart bacterial colony counter. The suspected bacterial colonies were isolated and identified based on cultural morphology characteristics. The isolates of suspected bacterial colonies were stained according to Gram and Klein method and then were examined by the biochemical reaction. The results showed that there were two contaminant bacteria. Gram-positive cocci which were presumptively identified as coagulase-negative Staphylococci and gram-positive rods which were presumptively identified as Bacillus subtilis. In conclusion, the contaminant bacteria were regarded as low pathogen bacteria. The subtilin enzyme of B subtilis may cause an allergic reaction and coagulase-negative Staphylococci, Staphylococcus epidermidis is also an opportunist pathogen. Inevitably, for medical purposes, traditional-packed honey must be well filtered, water content above 18%, and standardized sterilization without loss of an antibacterial activity or change in properties.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Surgical masks commonly have many layers. The outer layer acts as the initial filtration and the protection for the middle layer, the middle layer acts as the primary filtration, and the innermost layer absorbs liquid to prevent the spread of droplets from the mask's wearer. The recommended duration of wearing medical and fabric masks is 4–6 hours, while some studies stated that the maximum duration is 8 hours. The use of S. aureus in this study was based on its clinical relevance as a major cause of nosocomial infections. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the filtration in three-layer and four-layer masks against S. aureus. Methods: This experimental study followed the methods of previous research, and followed the Standard Test Method from SNI 8489 2018 with several adjustments consisting of several steps, i.e., preparation of tested masks, bacterial culture media, and tested bacteria; determination of masks’ filtration efficacy; confirmation of the efficacy. All steps were repeated 15 times with exposure times of 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours and analysis using the chi-square test. Results: The percentage of surgical masks filtration effectiveness was indicated by the growth of S. aureus in Nutrient Agar media. The four-layer surgical masks showed the highest percentage (80%) of 2 hours and 4 hours of usage. Both types showed the lowest percentage of 8 hours of usage. Based on the duration of wearing, the mask's filtration effectiveness from the highest and lowest score was the S. aureus-exposed media for 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours, respectively p<0.050. The comparison value for the effectiveness of mask filtration between the type of masks and the length of use was 0.003. Conclusion: The filtration effectiveness of the four-layer masks is higher than the three-layer masks according to the duration of wearing the masks.Keyword : Surgical masks, filtration, duration, S.aureus

Abstract

Introduction: Several researchers have been stated that the right prognosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) can be achieved through assessment of tumor clinical staging and tumor histopathological grading as well. The use of biomarker in histopathological grading is obviously helpful to ensure the prognosis. Objective of this study was to determine the correlation between expression of Ki-67 and histopathological grading of OSCC. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by assessing 20 cases of paraffin-embedded OSCC derived from the Department of Pathology Anatomy of Hasan Sadikin Hospital Bandung in 2013. The OSCC performing was stained by hematoxylin-eosin. While, antibodies Ki-67 was used in immunohistochemistry reaction to determine the relation of expression of Ki-67 with histopathologic grade of OSCC for predicting a prognosis. Results: The result show that distribution of Ki-67 expression were vary from 20% to 80% in each case. Ki-67 intensity was also distributed from weak, moderate and strong. Conclusion: There is a significant correlation between Ki-67 immunoexpression and the histopathological grading of squamous cell carcinoma (p < 0.01), thus, Ki-67 can be used to predict a prognosis.Keywords: Immunoexpression, Ki-67, prognosis, oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract

Caries are the deterioration of dental hard tissue caused by acidic byproducts of bacterialcarbohydrate fermentation. The formation begins within the bacterial biofilm that covers the tooth's surface. Streptococcus mutans is the dominant bacteria in the biofilm, forming a multispecies biofilm on the tooth surface, growing, and surviving within it. S. mutans colony formation and acid formation can lead to tooth demineralization. The purpose of this scoping review is to determine the ability of S. mutans to survive in biofilms and during the formation of dental caries using articles from the chosen database. Articles published from 2016 until 2021 were searched for using the keywords: "Streptococcus mutans and caries or dental caries and survival ability or survivability and survival factor" in the PubMed, ScienceDirect, Cochrane, and Google scholar databases. Using PRISMA-Scr, existing articles were chosen based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. There were ten articles found that were suitable for review. The data presented in the article vary according to the study's location, purpose, method, and samples. The finding revealed that S. mutans survive in biofilms and caries formation due to their ability to activate enzymes, virulence factors of S. mutans, and the environmental conditions of the oral cavity. Aciduric; acidogenic; quorum sensing; ability to form GTFs, GBPs, ATPase, CSP, eDNA; and the ability to produce bacteriocin and autolysins all contribute to Streptococcus mutans' ability to survive in biofilms and during the formation of dental caries KEYWORDS: biofilm, caries, survival ability, survival factor, Streptococcus mutans.

Abstract

Early Childhood Caries (ECC) is the most common chronic infectious disease of childhood in the world, caused by the interaction of the host (oral cavity), substrate, microbes, and time. Bacteria as microbes that play a role in the formation of ECC have been widely studied. This study aims to determine the bacterial profile in children with ECC and to compare the oral microbial profiles in children with ECC and caries-free children (CF). Methods: This study uses a scoping review method. Article searches were performed on the PubMed, Science Direct, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases, using the keyword and Boolean operator "(early childhood caries) AND (profile bacterial OR bacterial) AND (children)." The initial search obtained 1356 articles. All articles were then selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria using the PRISMA procedure to receive 14 articles. Results: Analysis of 14 articles showed that 11 articles reported that Streptococcus mutans had high levels of ECC in children. Other bacteria with lesser numbers were Provetella, Veillonella, S. wiggsae, S. sobrinus, Lactobacillus, Leptrotrichia shahii, and Leptrotrichia IK04. Neisseria, Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus salivarius, and Leptotrichia buccalis were found in CF children. Other bacteria such as Hemophilus paraphrohaemolyticus HK411, Neisseria sicca 4320, Neisseria sp. oral clones AP132, Actinobacillus pleuro-pneumoniae MCCM 00189, and Streptococcus sp. ASCE06 oral clone was found in CF children but not in ECC children, while Lactobacillus sp C56 was found in half of ECC children and not in CF children. Conclusion: Streptococcus mutans levels in children with ECC are high, so they are assumed to be the main bacteria causing ECC. The bacterial profiles of ECC and CF children are different in species diversity. KEYWORDS: Early Childhood Caries, Bacterial, Children

Abstract

ABSTRACT Oral Biofilm is a collection of microbial cell colonies related to periodontal diseases and caries. Biofilmbacteria were more resistant to antimicrobial agents than in the planktonic phase. The rapid progression of bacterialresistance to antimicrobial agents such as chlorhexidine has encouraged researchers to find alternative antimicrobialagents from natural plant products with low side effects. The purpose of this review was to summarize plants thatcontain bioactive compounds for biofilm eradication in terms of preventing caries and periodontal diseases. Themethod was used Systematic Review without Metha Analysis. Articles to be reviewed were searched from Pubmed,Cochrane, Science Direct, and Google Scholar databases using the PRISMA method and hand searching. The lastselected articles were analyzed using narrative analysis. There are 1,610 articles specified in the first stage and only18 articles left in the final extraction stage. Plants that contain bioactive compounds for oral biofilm eradicationinclude Piper betle (betel), Psidium sp., Mangifera sp., Mentha sp., Caesalpinia sappan (secang), Baccharis dracunculifolia,Laurus nobilis L. (dafnah), Croton nepetaefolius, Salvadora persica (miswak), Dryopteris crassirhizoma, Diospyros kakiThunb. (persimmon), Ginkgo biloba, Azadirachta indica (neem), Camellia sinensis, Lippia alba, Cymbopogon citratus(lemongrass), Citrus aurantifolius, Tamarindus indica (sour), Syzygium cumini (jamblang), Emblica officinalis (malacca),Acacia Arabica (prickly acacia), Terminalia chebula (myrobalan), Terminalia bellerica (bahera), Carica papaya, Ocimumbasilicum L. (basil), and Myrmercodia pendans. These plant bioactive compounds are belong to the group of alkaloids,terpenoids, and polyphenols which were tested in the form of single compounds or mixtures, especially againstStreptococcus mutans. In conclusion, 26 plant species have reported containing bioactive compounds tested in theform of single or mixed extracts to eradicate oral bacterial biofilm.
