Notizen:
A system is described for assessing the toxicity of freshly mixed restorative materials in vitro by measuring changes in the levels of β-galactosidase and lactic dehydrogenase in both cultured cells and supernatants. The toxic effects of a zinc phosphate and silicate cement, a composite, and zinc oxide/eugenol were studied on two cell types, macrophages and fibroblasts, after 24 h exposure. Zinc oxide/eugenol, Silicap, and zinc phosphate were toxic to macrophages, in that order; Concise appeared to be nontoxic. Only zinc oxide/eugenol exerted significant effects on fibroblasts. Interposing dentine powder between the test cells and the material ameliorated the effects of all materials, possibly by the absorption of toxic components.
