 歯肉炎や歯周炎などの歯周病の罹患率は厚生労働省の統計によると40才以上の国民の80%以上であり、口腔内の国民病として大変重要な問題である。また、今後高齢化がさらに進む中で、歯周病の予防対策は急務である。歯周病は歯周ポケットの歯垢中に存在する嫌気性細菌による混合感染症と考えられている。歯周病と最も関連が深い細菌として、ポルフィロモナス・ジンジバリス(P. gingivalis)やフソバクテリウム・ヌクレアタム(F. nucleatum)などの編性嫌気性細菌が知られている。また、虫歯(う蝕)の原因菌としてはストレプトコッカス・ミュータンス(S. mutans)が知られている。 The prevalence of periodontal diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis is more than 80% of the population over 40 years old according to statistics from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, which is a very important issue as a national disease in the oral cavity. In addition, as the population ages further, preventive measures for periodontal disease are urgently needed. Periodontal disease is thought to be a mixed infection caused by anaerobic bacteria present in the plaque in the periodontal pocket. As bacteria most closely related to periodontal disease, knitted anaerobic bacteria such as Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) and Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) are known. Further, Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) is known as a causative bacterium of dental caries.
 そこで、従来から、歯周病の原因菌や虫歯の原因菌に対し、抗菌剤として上述した中鎖脂肪酸のモノグリセリドが使用されてきた。 Therefore, conventionally, monoglycerides of the above-mentioned medium chain fatty acids have been used as antibacterial agents against periodontal disease causative bacteria and caries causative bacteria.
 しかしながら、中鎖脂肪酸のモノグリセリドはある程度の抗菌活性を有しているが、脂溶性のため水やアルコールに対する溶解度が低く、物性的に結晶が析出しやすいため実用的でない。このため、好適な添加量で口腔用組成物や飲食品に配合するには不適当である。 However, although monoglycerides of medium chain fatty acids have some antibacterial activity, they are impractical because they are fat-soluble and have low solubility in water and alcohol, and crystals tend to precipitate out physically. For this reason, it is unsuitable to mix | blend with the composition for oral cavity and food-drinks with a suitable addition amount.
 また、上記のポリグリセリン脂肪酸エステル類や上記以外の脂肪酸グリセリンエステル(ジグリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ショ糖脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシエチレンソルビタン脂肪酸エステル)は、比較的水に対する溶解度が向上するが、抗菌活性は相対的に低下する。 Moreover, although the above-mentioned polyglycerin fatty acid esters and fatty acid glycerin esters other than the above (diglycerin fatty acid ester, sucrose fatty acid ester, polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid ester) have relatively improved solubility in water, antibacterial activity is relatively low Decline.
 さらに、上記以外の抗菌剤としては、例えば、フェノール系、安息香酸系、ソルビン酸系、有機ハロゲン系、ピリジニウム塩、チアゾール系の抗菌剤が知られているが、これらの多くは安全性の面で問題がある。 Furthermore, as antibacterial agents other than the above, for example, phenolic, benzoic acid, sorbic acid, organic halogen, pyridinium salts, and thiazole antibacterial agents are known, but many of these are in terms of safety. There is a problem.
 一方、天然系抗菌剤としては、例えば、エタノール、ポリリジン、リゾチーム、プロタミン、ラクトフェリン、グリシン、キトサン、チモール、オイゲノール、油性甘草エキス、アシタバ抽出エキス、竹抽出エキス、香辛料抽出物が挙げられる。これらの天然系抗菌剤は天然系素材であるため安全性は高いが、いずれも抗菌活性の点で満足いくものではない。 On the other hand, examples of natural antibacterial agents include ethanol, polylysine, lysozyme, protamine, lactoferrin, glycine, chitosan, thymol, eugenol, oily licorice extract, ashitaba extract, bamboo extract, and spice extract. Since these natural antibacterial agents are natural materials, they are highly safe, but none of them is satisfactory in terms of antibacterial activity.
 本発明は、上記事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、安全性が高く、配合特性に優れ、かつ歯周病の原因菌や虫歯の原因菌に対して強い抗菌活性を有する新規の口腔用抗菌剤を提供することにある。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is a novel that has high safety, excellent blending characteristics, and strong antibacterial activity against periodontal disease causative bacteria and caries causative bacteria. It is to provide an antibacterial agent for oral cavity.
 本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するため鋭意検討した結果、α-リノレン酸モノグリセリドとリノール酸モノグリセリドが歯周病の原因菌や虫歯の原因菌に対して強力な抗菌活性を示し、かつ配合特性にも優れることを見出し、本発明を完成した。 As a result of intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have shown that α-linolenic acid monoglyceride and linoleic acid monoglyceride have strong antibacterial activity against periodontal disease causative bacteria and caries causative bacteria, and are formulated. The inventors have found that the properties are excellent and completed the present invention.
