Comparative in vitro activity of sanguinarine against oral microbial isolates.

J L Dzink, S S Socransky
PMCID: PMC180120  PMID: 4004199

Abstract

MICs of sanguinarine were determined for 52 oral reference strains and 129 fresh isolates from human dental plaque. Sanguinarine was found to completely inhibit the growth of 98% of the isolates at a concentration of 16 micrograms/ml.
