Monomer release from Orthocryl® specimens extracts of (A) test specimens A (15 mm × 0.5 mm), (B) test specimens B (50 mm × 1.0 mm) or (C) test specimens C (50 mm × 3.0 mm) under different soaking conditions. Shown are the total amounts of monomers released in relation to the respective specimen volume. The test specimens were stored in distilled water at room temperature for 0, 48 or 168 h followed by a 24 h storage in cell culture medium (DMEM, Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium) under shaking conditions. The DMEM eluates were used undiluted (100%) to determine the monomers by GC-MS. UDMA, urethane dimethacrylate; MMA, methyl methacrylate; BDMA, 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate; DGEBA, bisphenol A diglycidyl ether; DGEBF, bisphenol F diglycidyl ether. The data are mean values ± SEM of n = 3–4 per group.
