Table 3. CFU counts from S. mutans in culture medium away from the material surfaces.

Medium sample	S. mutans CFU (per mL)
	Without aging	With aging
Culture medium of negative control	1.52(0.16)×10^9A	1.57(0.13)×10^9A
Culture medium of positive control	1.50(0.28)×10^9A	1.43(0.20)×10^9A
Culture medium of experimental material	1.53(0.21)×10^9A	1.61(0.19)×10^9A
Culture medium of MTA	1.41(0.23)×10^9A	1.49(0.16)×10^9A
Culture medium of Dycal	1.42(0.23)×10^9A	1.51(0.19)×10^9A

CFU values represent the mean (SD) of six replicates, and data were analyzed with one-way and two-way ANOVA at a significance level of 0.05. Values with the same superscript letter are not significantly different (p>0.05).
