Analysis of the Effects of Food Additives on Porphyromonas gingivalis
PATHOGENS(2022)
摘要
This study aims to investigate six food additives (octanoic acid, decanoic acid, acesulfame K, aspartame, saccharin, and sucralose) used in foods for the elderly or people with dysphagia because of the effect of these food additives on Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), which is a keystone pathogen of periodontal diseases. The growth of P. gingivalis was inhibited by 5 mM octanoic acid, 1.25 mM decanoic acid, 1.25% acesulfame K, 0.0625% aspartame, 0.03125% saccharin, and 0.625% sucralose. In addition, these food additives showed bactericidal activity for planktonic P. gingivalis (5 mM octanoic acid, 5 mM decanoic acid, 0.25% aspartame, 0.25% saccharin, and 5% sucralose). Moreover, biofilm formation was inhibited by 10 mM octanoic acid, 10 mM decanoic acid, 10% acesulfame K, 0.35% aspartame, 0.5% saccharin, and 7.5% sucralose. Moreover, the same concentration of these food additives without aspartame killed P. gingivalis in the biofilm. Aspartame and sucralose did not show cytotoxicity to human cell lines at concentrations that affected P. gingivalis. These findings may be useful in clarifying the effects of food additives on periodontopathogenic bacteria.
