【摘要】Objective:To evaluate the antimicrobial activities of silver inorganic phosphate

materials,including

silver

zeolite(AgZ),silver

silver

zirconium zirconium

silicate(AgZrPSi)and

phosphate(AgZrp),against oral microorganisms.In line with this objective,the morphology and structure of each type of silver based powders were also investigated.Methods:The antimicrobial activities of AgZ,AgZrPSi

and

AgZrP

were

tested

against

Streptococcus

mutans,Lactobacillus casei,Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus using disk diffusion assay as a screening test.The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)and

minimum

lethal

concentration(MLC)were

determined using the modified membrane method.Scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction were used to investigate the morphology and structure of these silver materials.Results:All forms of silver inorganic materials could inhibit the growth of all test
