抄録

A new antimicrobial material, zeolite (Zeomic®), was added at concentrations of 0 (control), 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% in the powder phase to a heat cured acrylic resin, and the effects of addition of this agent on the mechanical strength of acrylics and on the growth of Candida albicans were examined.<BR>Both mean tensile and bending strength decreased depending upon the dose of zeolite added, though, as compared with the control, 4% and 5% added specimens exhibited significantly low strength in both tests. These results suggest that the preferable concentration of addition of zeolite acrylic would be less than 4%, taking into account of mechanical strength.<BR>On the other hand, zeolite-combined acrylics, except 1%-specimen, showed significant fungicidal effects. Further, all zeolite-combined specimens showed significant growth inhibition of Candida albicans.<BR>These results, suggest the possibility of clinical use of this material, and that the optimal concentration of addition of zeolite is around 2%, in consideration of both mechanical properties and antifungal effects.
