Biochemical changes in selected gamma-irradiation induced mutants of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Lactobacillus casei were examined. Cultures were tested after 24 h of incubation at 37 C for titratable and volatile acidities and proteolytic activity. The gamma-irradiation induced mutants exhibited 50–95% greater proteolytic activity than the unirradiated parent culutres. Some of the mutants produced greater titratable and volatile acidities in milk as compared to parent cultures. Two mutant cultures, Lb/G-1 from L. bulgaricus 59 and Lc/G-1 from L. casei RTS released significantly greater amounts of soluble nitrogen and amino nitrogen in whole casein and selected fractions than did parent cultures. Combining the mutant cultures with Streptococcus lactis C10 or Streptococcus cremoris C1 resulted in greater acid producing ability than that of the parent cultures mixed with the streptococci.

AbstractThis in vitro study evaluated the protective effect of titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4) varnish and silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solution on the radiation-induced dentin caries. Bovine root dentin samples were irradiated (70 Gy) and treated as follows: (6 h): 4% TiF4 varnish; 5.42% NaF varnish; 30% SDF solution; placebo varnish; or untreated (negative control). Microcosm biofilm was produced from human dental biofilm (from patients with head-neck cancer) mixed with McBain saliva for the first 8 h. After 16 h and from day 2 to day 5, McBain saliva (0.2% sucrose) was replaced daily (37 °C, 5% CO2) (biological triplicate). Demineralization was quantified by transverse microradiography (TMR), while biofilm was analyzed by using viability, colony-forming units (CFU) counting and lactic acid production assays. The data were statistically analyzed by ANOVA (p < 0.05). TiF4 and SDF were able to reduce mineral loss compared to placebo and the negative control. TiF4 and SDF significantly reduced the biofilm viability compared to negative control. TiF4 significantly reduced the CFU count of total microorganism, while only SDF affected total streptococci and mutans streptococci counts. The varnishes induced a reduction in lactic acid production compared to the negative control. TiF4 and SDF may be good alternatives to control the development of radiation-induced dentin caries.
