- Description
- The goal of the study is to identify specific oral bacterial structures that augment a healthy innate host defense status within periodontal tissue. These structures will be incorporated into the gum base currently being employed for delivry of KSL, an antimicrobial peptide developed at the USADTRD. UW plans to employ a germ-free mouse model, rather than larger animals, to screen for the activity of identified natural immunomodulating agents as the larger animal models are cost prohibitive for this project. It is the intent of this project to augment gingival health and provide additional protection for fighting Soldiers when normal hygiene is not avaiable. If any other organization can provide these services as described, please respond by email to micaela.bowers1@us.army.mil by noon EST 7 May 2007.
