초록

본 연구의 목적은 첫째 임상에서 진료실에 노출된 가타파차 콘 표면의 오염 균종을 중합효소연쇄반응법 (polymerase chain reaction, PCR)을 이용해 동정하고, 둘째 이들 세균으로 오염시킨 가타파차 콘에 대해 2종의 소독제의 rapid sterilization 효과를 비교하였다. 또한 이들 소독제에 5분간 처리된 가타파차 콘 표면 성상의 변화를 주사전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 진료실에 수 개월간 노출된 가타파차 콘 100개를 수거하여 배양지에 넣어 배양 후 universial primer를 사용한 PCR assay 를 통해 오염 균종을 동정하였다. 실험실 상에서 이 균종을 다시 배양하여 소독된 가타파차 콘에 접종하고 1주일간 배양한 후 2종의 소독제(5% NaOCl, 2% Chlorhexidine)에 1, 3, 5, 10 분간 담근 후 각 소독제의 종류와 적용시간에 따른 멸균 효과를 turbidity test 와 subculture 를 이용하여 평가하였다. 또한 각 소독제에 5분간 처리된 가타파차 콘 표면 성상의 변화를 주사전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 중합효소연쇄반응법의 분석결과 17개의 가타 파차 콘이 오염된 것으로 나타났고 대부분이 Staphylococcus 계통이었으며, 2종의 소독제 모두 이들 균종에 대해 1분내에 멸균 효과를 나타냈다. 주사전자현미경상 NaOCl로 소독된 가타파차 콘 표면에는 cuboidal crystal 의 침전물이 전반적으로 관찰되었다. 본 연구 결과 2종의 소독제 모두 근관충전 전 가타파차 콘의 rapid sterilization 을 위해 유용하였으나 클로헥시딘으로 처리된 가타파차 콘이 크리스탈 침전물이 없는 좀더 깨끗한 표면을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

The purposes of this study were firstly to identify the microbial species on gutta-percha (GP) cones exposed at outpatient clinics using polymerase chain reaction, and secondly to evaluate the rapid sterilization effect of two chemical disinfectants at chair side. It also evaluated the alteration of surface texture of GP cones after 5-min soaking into two chemical disinfectants. A total of 100 GP cones from two endodontic departments were randomly selected for microbial detection using PCR assay with universal primer. After inoculation on the sterilized GP cones with the same microorganism identified by PCR assay, they were soaked in two chemical disinfectants: 5% NaOCl and 2% chlorhexidine for 1, 3, 5, and 10 minutes. The sterilization effect was evaluated by turbidity and subculture. The change of surface textures using a scanning electron microscope was also examined after 5 min-soaking in two chemical disinfectants. Results showed that four bacterial species were detected in 17 GP cones, and all the species belonged to the genus Staphylococcus. Two chemical disinfectants were effective in sterilization with just 1 minute soaking. On the SEM picture of NaOCl-soaked GP cone, a cluster of cuboidal crystals was seen on the cone surface. Present data demonstrate that two chemical disinfectants are useful for rapid sterilization of GP cone just before obturation at chair side, while CHX-soaked GP cone has cleaner surface without crystal precipitation than that of NaOCl-treated cone.
