Effect of different methods of sterilization on the inactivation of bacterial endotoxin (LPS) in endodontic files Efeito de diferentes métodos de esterilização na inativação da endotoxina bacteriana (LPS) presnete em limas endodônicas

This study evaluated the presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in endodontic files after in vitro contamination with E. coli LPS and sterilization in dry heat or wet heat, with or without previous immersion in a Ca(OH)2 suspension. LPS was quantified using the Kinetic QCL TM test and data were analyz...
