Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: This study investigated the anti-oxidant and anti-bacterial activities of mouthwash prepared using freeze dried acacia flower hot water extracts (FDAFWEx), including songji and topan solar salt, and created a natural mouthwash.
Methods: The anti-oxidant activity of acacia flowers was measured by the radical scavenging activities of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) using freeze drying, roasting, and hot air drying. The anti-oxidant activity was estimated using the radical scavenging activity of the DPPH in the mouthwash. The anti-bacterial activity was evaluated using the paper disk diffusion method.
Results: The greatest anti-oxidant activity of acacia flowers was observed in the FDAFWEx. The anti-oxidant activity of mouthwash was increased by adding FDAFWEx in a dose-dependent manner. The anti-bacterial activity was increased by including the FDAFWEx content.
Conclusion: FDAFWEx was determined to have anti-oxidant and anti-bacterial activities, and it is anticipated that mouthwash containing FDAFWEx could be a natural mouthwash.
