syringic acid/dental caries

Fissure caries is reduced when syringic acid is incorporated into a cariogenic diet of rats. It was therefore of interest to synthesize n-hexyl and 2-ethylhexyl syringate and to evaluate the properties of cements with these compounds as ingredients. Liquids containing the esters dissolved in

Intermolecular interactions of alpha-, beta-, gamma- and heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-beta-cyclodextrin (CD) with syringic acid (Syr) in aqueous solution are investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy. The fluorescence intensity of Syr gradually increases with the addition of the CDs. The formation

OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of syringic acid(SA) in rabbits by HPLC. METHODS After the rabbits were injected SA injection via ear vein and peritoneal cavity, blood was collected also via ear vein at different time-point. Then the concentration of SA in blood was

The mycelia of the edible mushroom Lentinula edodes can be cultured in solid medium containing lignin, and the hot-water extracts (L.E.M.) is commercially available as a nutritional supplement. During the cultivation, phenolic compounds, such as syringic acid and vanillic acid, were produced by

The complexation of five polyphenols, namely trans-resveratrol, astilbin, taxifolin, ferulic acid, and syringic acid (guest molecules) with α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrin (host molecules), was investigated by capillary electrokinetic chromatography. The binding constants were calculated based on the

A series of phenolic acids and phenol natural products, such as p-hydroxybenzoic acid, p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, gallic acid, syringic acid, quercetin, and ellagic acid, were investigated for their inhibitory effects against the metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1).

The neutral red in vitro cytotoxicity assay was used to evaluate the comparative responses of human cells isolated from tissues of the oral cavity to olive oil phenolics. The cell lines used included normal gingival fibroblasts, immortalized, nontumorigenic gingival epithelial cells, and carcinoma

Streptococcus mutans is responsible for causing dental caries in humans and utilizes sucrose for its growth. The dextransucrase (EC 2.4.1.5) is responsible for sucrose metabolism, which exhibits both hydrolytic and glucosyltransferase activities. In this study, we examined the effects of the plant
