Table I shows the components of the trial denture cleansers. In the fungicidal test, the first concentration of berberine hydrochloride was 0.125 mg/ml and the solution (S) was diluted in a series of twofold measurements (S125, Supported by a Grant-in-Aid No. 03670916 for scientific research from the Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture of Japan. aInstructor, Department of Prosthetic Dentistry. bAssistant Professor, Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, cProfessor and Chairman, Department of Prosthetic Dentistry.

For the Candida removal test, the color stability test, and the measurement of surface roughness, one trial denture cleanser, which was most available in the fungicidal test, was used.

N2 - The antifungal activity of trial denture cleansers prepared with berberine hydro-chloride was examined against Candida albicans, C. tropicalis, and C. glabrata. A commercial denture cleanser and a trial denture cleanser that exhibited strong antifungal activity were tested for their effects on Candida spp., the color stability of the dental material, and the surface roughness of acrylic resin plates. The results of these tests revealed that the trial denture cleanser removed 64% to 89% of adhered cells from acrylic resin surfaces and had little effect on the other physical properties tested.
