Background: Bioactive resin can release calcium ions when contact with solution media, even in acid condition. In the oral cavity, pH may change into acid condition due to the metabolic results of Streptococcus mutans. The bacteria metabolize carbohydrates into organic acids, one of which is lactic acid. Purpose: Analyze the effect of lactic acid solution and artificial saliva on the number of the release of calcium ions of bioactive resin. Methods: Forty-two specimens (diameter 15 mm x thickness 1 mm; n= 7/group fabricated with Activa™ Bioactive Restorative (Pulpdent). The specimens that meet the criteria were divided into 6 groups. The specimen was immersed for 1 and 7 days in the incubator at 37oC. The number of calcium ion release is measured using titration method. Results: Two Way Anova test and Post Hoc Bonferonni test showed there were significant differences among all group for lactic acid 1 day (4.040 ± 0.360) µg, artificial saliva 1 day (0.640 ± 0.338) µg, distilled water 1 day (1.040 ± 0.504) µg, lactic acid 7 days (5.400 ± 0.312), artificial saliva 7 days (1.640 ± 0.215) µg, distilled water 7 days (3.520± 0.356 µg). Conclusion: There was an influence of lactic acid and artificial saliva on the number of calcium ion releases of bioactive resin. Immersion of bioactive resin in the lactic acid solution increase the calcium ion releases and artificial saliva decrease the calcium ion release compared to distilled water. Keywords: artificial saliva, bioactive resin, calcium ion release, lactic acid

The pH difference across the cell membrane of frog sartorius muscle cells was measured with the distribution of 5,5-dimethyl-2,4-oxazolidine-dione (DMO) as the marker. Depolarization of the muscles to values at or below the contraction threshold caused by elevating external potassium up to approximately 20 mM resulted in an internal alkalinization. The change was smaller with superthreshold depolarization (20--30 mM [K+]). The alkalinization was blocked by agents that block calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (procaine and dantrolene sodium). Other agents that cause calcium release (caffeine, theophylline, and quinine) were found to give alkalinization when tested at concentrations just below the contracture threshold. Increased acidification of the extracellular medium was associated with the internal alkalinization. The data were interpreted as indicating the presence of a calcium-stimulated H+ and/or OH- ion transport system in the muscle membrane.

Malignant hyperpyrexia during general anesthesia requires emergency treatment. The hyperthermic trait is due to an inborn error of metabolism with variably expressed autosomal dominant inheritance, as well as a sporadic incidence. Volatile inhalant anesthetic agents are thought to produce abnormal calcium ion release in susceptible individuals. Resultant enzyme activation and oxidative phosphorylation then cause hypermetabolism and produce fever to 108° and higher. Combined morbidity and mortality of the syndrome is still in excess of 75%. A treatment protocol based on the presently understood pathophysiology of the disease is described. It includes parenteral delivery of procaine, corticosteroids and Thorazine® as well as routine support measures. Herald signs of this syndrome, such as abnormal anesthetic induction with masseter muscle spasm suggest curtailing the operation or obtaining full consultation.
