Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to systems for determining the presence of oral diseases in mammals, and more particularly, to a colori ⁇ metric test which is useful in determining periodontal disease activity in a human being, or in an animal.
  • periodontal disease has traditionally been defined as an inflammation of the gums, which means that host tissue is responding to bacteria and/or the products of bacteria, periodontal disease has not been treated like a bacterial infection in the medical sense.
  • periodontal disease has not been treated in the art with antimicrobial drugs because the growth of plaque on the teeth appears to be inevitable and since it is external to the body, would not seem to be treatable by systemically administered drugs.
  • periodontal disease was specific to one, or several, particularly damaging bacteria. In fact, about 200 species of microbes have been isolated from various plaque samples. Thus, mechanical treatment which requires instrumenting of the tooth to remove accumulated bacterial deposits non- specifically was deemed to be the appropriate means of treating periodontal disease.
  • Spirochetes and black pigmented bacteroides are particularly prominent when pockets bleed upon probing and when there is clinical evidence of disease progression. Thus, the possibility of drug treatment directed towards these anaerobic organisms is raised. In fact, beneficial results have been observed with the use of metronidazole, an antimicrobial effective against anaerobes.
  • metronidazole is available underthe trademark FLAGYL from G. D. Searle & Co., Chicago, IL 60680 as well as in generic form from Zenith Laboratories, Inc., Ramsey, NJ.
  • the specimen is additionally assayed for a nonspecific enzymatic marker for indicating whether the specimen contains a predetermined minimum number of microorganisms sufficient to yield a reliable test result.
  • a nonspecific enzymatic marker for indicating whether the specimen contains a predetermined minimum number of microorganisms sufficient to yield a reliable test result.
  • Analysis of the results of extensive testing has revealed that a population of approximately between 1 and 10 million bacteria in the specimen is sufficient to yield reliable results with the proteolytic enzyme test.
  • the test procedure may yield a negative result solely because there were too few bacteria in the specimen.
  • the first chromogenic test substance is specific to trypsin-like enzymatic activity, and is selected from the group consisting of BANA, BAPNA, and 2-arginine-7-amino-4-trifluoromethyl coumarin.
  • the second chromogenic test substance is specific to the enzyme phosphatase, and is selected from the group consisting of p-nitrophenol phosphate, o-nitro- phenol phosphate, and o-carboxyl phosphate.
  • the peptide substrate is benzoyl-DL-arginine-p-nitroanilide (BAPNA) which forms color as it hydrolyses, thereby obviating the need for an additional color developer to demonstrate the enzymatic activity of the specimen.
  • BAPNA benzoyl-DL-arginine-p-nitroanilide
