Shows the proliferation rate as well as the inflammatory response of Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts to GuttaFlow, AHPlus and a control group. A) displays the results of the AlamarBlue proliferation assay with Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts. AHPlus significantly inhibited cell growth within the first 24 while GuttaFlow and the control group seemed to have comparable cell growth characteristics. B) shows the results of the ToxiLight® BioAssay after a time period of 24 h. A significantly higher release of Adenylate Kinase was observed in cells, incubated with AHPlus. C) shows the significantly higher prostaglandin release in the supernatant of Human Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts incubated with AHPlus.
