Three impression tray adhesives were tested for their antimicrobial actions on three bacteria strains used for disinfectant studies. The colony forming unit (CFU) counts from plating the adhesive-exposed bacteria showed a significant reduction in number compared with the CFU of the controls. Statistical analyses confirmed the significant reduction (p < 0.05) for all but one test case. Proper infection control procedures should always be followed, but the added benefits of disinfection by impression tray adhesives can help prevent cross contamination.
对三种印模托盘粘合剂进行了测试，以研究它们对用于消毒剂研究的三种细菌菌株的抗菌作用。与对照的菌落形成单位（CFU）相比，接种暴露于粘合剂的细菌后平板计数显示数量显著减少。统计分析证实，除一个测试案例外，所有案例均有显著减少（p < 0.05）。应始终遵循适当的感染控制程序，但印模托盘粘合剂消毒的额外益处有助于防止交叉污染。
