Using sodium fluoride and Tea polyphenol as antimicrobial agent and Streptococcus mu-tans as target, sensitivity tests were studied. Results The modeling biofilm assay resulted in a MIC of 1. 28mg/ ml for fluoride against S. mutans, which was 32 times the MIC for broth maco-dilution method. The differential resistance of bacteria bioflim to antimicrobial agent relative to planktonic cells was also demonstrated. Conclusion The biofilm artificial mouth model may be useful in oral products test.展开更多
