Milk oligosaccharides are high added value compounds that could be obtained by exploiting cheese whey, a byproduct of dairy industry. The objective was to compare the abundance and diversity of oligosaccharides in whey samples from domestic animals and humans. During fresh cheese making, whey samples were collected and analyzed by untargeted and targeted small molecule analysis using high-resolution mass-spectrometry.

Objective: Mouthwash is effective in maintaining oral hygiene in patients; however, there is concern that it may adversely affect human oral mucosa. We evaluated a pH-neutral electrolyzed super-oxidized solution (ESS, tradename OxOral®) combined with dental scaling in periodontitis patients. This longitudinal study was conducted with 34 patients divided into three groups.

It is also positive in neuroepithelial cells, precursor neural cells (NPC), and human dental pulp cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential morphodifferentiation and histodifferentiation to NPC of SSEA-4 positive stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED).

Objective: To evaluate the effect of the combination of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)) and a novel electrolyzed superoxidized solution at neutral pH, known as OxOral® on growth in root canals.
Methods: Sixty human teeth were used, from which root canals were infected and randomly divided into the following treatment groups: saline solution, saline solution plus Ca(OH), OxOral®, and OxOral® plus Ca(OH).
Results: A permanent reduction in bacterial growth was observed at days 1, 6, 12, and 18 after OxOral® plus Ca(OH) treatment from 4.
The presence of in the oral cavity has been associated to the failure of antimicrobial therapy in patients with gastrointestinal infection and the development of oral diseases. However, it has been reported that the maintenance of good oral hygiene can improve the therapeutic success rates, where the use of mouthwashes with anti- activity would help to achieve it. The aim was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of OxOral® mouthwash against and its effect on biofilm formation.

This bacterium has been recognized as belonging to group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization for the role in development of gastritis, peptic ulcers, and cancer. Due to the increase in resistance to antibiotics used in the anti- therapy, the development of an effective vaccine is an alternative of great interest, which remains a challenge.
