Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the efficacy of a sugarcane-derived cystatin (CaneCPI-5) in reducing erosive dentin wear using two different delivery methods: a solution and a chitosan gel.
- In a crossover design, 15 volunteers tested various solutions, while 16 volunteers tested different gel formulations, both subjected to erosive challenges with citric acid.
- Results showed that CaneCPI-5 significantly reduced dentin loss in both delivery methods, with the chitosan gel combined with CaneCPI-5 offering the best protection against erosion and abrasion.
Objective: A new sugarcane-derived cystatin (CaneCPI-5) showed anti-erosive properties when included in solutions and strong binding force to enamel, but the performance of this protein when added to gel formulations and its effect on surface free energy (SFE) requires further studies. 1) to evaluate the protective effect of gels containing different concentrations of CaneCPI-5 against initial enamel erosion (Experiment 1); and 2) to analyze the SFE (γS) after treating the enamel surface with CaneCPI-5 solution (Experiment 2).
Methodology: In Experiment 1, 75 bovine enamel specimens were divided into five groups according to the gel treatments: placebo (negative control); 0.

Objectives: The acquired enamel pellicle (AEP) is an organic film, bacteria-free, formed in vivo as a result of the selective adsorption of salivary proteins and glycoproteins to the solid surfaces exposed to the oral environment. Objective: This study aimed to compare the proteomic profile of AEP formed in situ on human and bovine enamel using a new intraoral device (Bauru in situ pellicle model - BISPM).
Material And Methods: Material and Methods: One hundred and eight samples of human and bovine enamel were prepared (4×4 mm).
