Antimicrobial activity in vitro of camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia) against oral microorganisms: a systematic review
Objectives. To evaluate the antimicrobial activity of Myrciaria dubia on oral microorganisms. Materials and Methods. A systematic review of the literature following PRISMA guidelines was conducted through searches of studies published between 2008 and 2018 in Pubmed, LILACS, SciELO, ProQuest, EBSCO,...
