Abstract

Many of antimicrobial components used in the mouthwash have disadvantages such as coloring of periodontal tissue and homing sensation. To find the more biocompatible antimicrobial agent, we have screened the 2,125 kinds of natural plant extracts obtained from by the Plant Extract Bank (Daejeon, Korea). The antimicrobial activity was determined by spectrophotometric growth inhibition assay for the major dental pathogens. For the Porphyromonas gingivalis, 19 plant extracts had an antimicrobial activity, 17 plant extracts for the Prevotella intermedia, 45 plant extracts for the Haemophilus actinomycetemcomitans and 85 plant extracts for the Streptococcus mutans. Among these effective extracts, 8 kind of natural plant extracts had an antimicrobial activity for more than 3 species of dental pathogens. In our experiment, Cudrania tricuspidata, Morus bombycis and Mallotus japonicas have antibacterial effects on the all kinds of major dental pathogens. Therefore these plant extracts have a possibility to be a candidate for major antibacterial components in dental products.

구강청정제에 사용되는 많은 항미생물 성분들은 치주조직의 착색 및 작열감 등의 부작용을 가지고 있다. 이러한 취약점을 해결하고, 좀 더 생체친화적인 항미생물 물질을 찾기 위하여,한국식물추출물은행에서 소장하고 있는 2,125종의 식물추출물을 검색하였다. 항미생물 능력을 확인하기 위해, 잘 알려진 치과 병원균(치주질환 3종, 충치 1종)에 대한 성장억제 효과를 측정하였다. 대표적인 치주질환 유발세균인 Porphyromonas gingivalis에 대해서 19중의 식물 추출물이 항생효과를 나타내었으며, 17종이 Prevotella intermedia에 대해, 45종이 Haemophilus actinomycetemcomitans에 대해, 그리고 85종의 추출물이 충치 유발세균인 Streptococcus mutans 에 대해 효과를 나타내었다. 이중에서 총8종의 식물추출물이 실험에 사용한4종의 미생물 중 3종 이상에 대해 항생작용을 나타내었다. 또한 Cudrania tricuspidata, Morus bombycis와 Mallotus japonicas가 실험에 사용된 4종의 치과 병원균 모두에 대해 항생작용을 나타내어 치과용 재료 혹은 양치액에 항미생물 물질로 사용될 가능성을 나타내었다.
