This study aims to figure out how green tea leaves, mulberry leaves, and mate leaves that are often taken around in drinking tea influence on S. mutans known as dental caries causative bacteria. After vaccinating 1% of S. mutans on the extract added badge and incubating 6 hours and 10 hours in 37℃, it calculated absorbance and bacterial colony number. Extract of green tea leaves and mate leaves were added with 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0% of concentration. As a result of growth suppressive effect of S. mutans, it may be observed that colony number significantly decreases in higher concentration. When it calculated bacterial colony number with adding 2% extract after 10 hours, 99.0% for green tea leaves, 97.1% for mulberry leaves, and 89.6% for mate leaves appeared. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
