Effect of Labrador tea (A), peppermint (B), and winter savory (C) essential oils on Fusobacterium nucleatum ATCC 25586 biofilm desorption and viability. Biofilm desorption was determined by crystal violet staining. Biofilm viability was assessed using a commercial luminescence assay (BacTiter-Glo™) that quantifies ATP, an indicator of metabolically active viable bacteria. Assays were performed in triplicate, and the means ± standard deviations were calculated. * Significant difference in comparison with the control (compound) at p < 0.01.
