Antibacterial efficacy of a cetylpyridinium chloride-based mouthrinse against Fusobacterium nucleatum and in vitro plaques (2015)
Journal Article
Latimer, J., Munday, J., Buzza, K., Sreenivasan, P., & McBain, A. (2015). Antibacterial efficacy of a cetylpyridinium chloride-based mouthrinse against Fusobacterium nucleatum and in vitro plaques. American journal of dentistry, 28 Spe, 9A-13A

PURPOSE

To assess the antimicrobial effects of a fluoride-free and alcohol-free mouthrinse containing 0.075% CPC (test rinse, TR) compared with an otherwise-identical CPC-free control rinse (CR).

METHODS

Activity against laboratory cultures... Read More about Antibacterial efficacy of a cetylpyridinium chloride-based mouthrinse against Fusobacterium nucleatum and in vitro plaques.

Antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity of mouthrinses containing cetylpyridinium chloride and sodium fluoride (2015)
Journal Article
Latimer, J., Munday, J., Buzza, K., Forbes, S., Sreenivasan, P., & McBain, A. (2015). Antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity of mouthrinses containing cetylpyridinium chloride and sodium fluoride. BMC Microbiology, 15(169), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12866-015-0501-x

Background

Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) and sodium fluoride augment oral hygiene by inactivating bacteria and inhibiting enamel demineralisation, respectively. However, there are few reports in the literature documenting the antibacterial effic...

Altered Competitive Fitness, Antimicrobial Susceptibility, and Cellular Morphology in a Triclosan-Induced Small-Colony Variant of Staphylococcus aureus (2015)
Journal Article
Forbes, S., Latimer, J., Bazaid, A., & McBain, A. (2015). Altered Competitive Fitness, Antimicrobial Susceptibility, and Cellular Morphology in a Triclosan-Induced Small-Colony Variant of Staphylococcus aureus. Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 59(8), 4809-4816. https://doi.org/10.1128/AAC.00352-15

Staphylococcus aureus can produce small-colony variants (SCVs) that express various phenotypes. While their significance is unclear, SCV propagation may be influenced by relative fitness, antimicrobial susceptibility, and the underlying mechanism. We...
