(A) ICP-OES of biofilm samples (cells and EPS combined) incubated with different Dex-NZM. (B) Effect of different Dex-NZM formulations on bacterial viability with H2O2. (C) Effect of Dex-NZM formulations on the mass of biofilms with H2O2. Effect of Dex-NZM formulations on the viability of (D) primary human gingival epithelial cells and (E) human fibroblast cells. *, **, and *** indicate statistically significant differences at p < 0.05, p < 0.01, and p < 0.001, respectively, while “ns” stands for nonsignificant difference. Error bars are standard deviations.
