... of sucrose, glucose, sucralose and sorbitol, the biofilm mass was quantified up to 96 h, the pH of the spent culture media was measured, the expression of biofilm-related genes was determined, and demineralization challenge experiments were conduct in enamel fragments. The presence of sugars or sugar...

...Louis M. Steinberg; Folarin Odusola; Irwin D. Mandel Our earlier work demonstrated that the sweetener sucralose, C 12 H 19 CI 3 O 8 , mixed with water had no effect on intraoral plaque pH. The current study compared the effect on resting plaque pH of sucralose to sucrose when these sweeteners were...

...C.M. Meyerowitz; E.P. Syrrakou; R.F. Raubertas Sucralose is a safe, intensely sweet, noncaloric sucrose derivative that has been shown to be noncariogenic. The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects on plaque pH in vivo of sucralose in iced tea (alone or bulked with maltodextrin...
