Application of D-Amino Acids as Biofilm Dispersing Agent in Dental Unit Waterlines
Aim and Purpose. Biofilms in dental unit waterlines (DUWLs) are extremely difficult to eliminate. Aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a mixture of four D-amino acids on biofilm dispersion in DUWLs. Materials and Methods. A mixture of four D-amino acids (D-methionine, D-tryptophan, D-leu...
