Özet:

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare the physical characteristics and microsurgenity of the experimental spots (PP) based on oxyde of zinc containing propolis with the Grossman spots and AH Plus. In this study, propolis was collected from the Tekirdağ area (Trakya region, Turkey). In different proportions, propolis-containing spots were compared to [5% (PP5), 10% (PP10), 25% (PP25), 50% (PP50)], Grossman spots and AH Plus. The film thickness, fluidity, radiopathy, hardening times, resolution and pH of the water extract were assessed according to ISO 6876/2001 standards. The microsisons of the pates were studied by computer fluid filtration method. The Friedman test for pH in the statistical analysis, the Kruskal-Wallis test used in the analysis of all other tests (α=0.05). Results: Other physical characteristics of PPs except for resolution were in accordance with ISO 6876/2001 standards. The resolution of the PPs was similar to the Grossman patch (p>0.05), which was significantly greater than AH Plus (p<0.05). In the group-inter-pH comparison, the pH of PPs in water was similar to or statistically higher than those of Grossman and AH Plus (p<0.05). While there are significant differences in group-internal comparisons (p<0.05), pH values tend to rise over time. High values were in PP5 and Grossman (p>0.05; both were similar), while low values were in AH Plus; PP10, PP25 and PP50 were among them. The result is that the physical characteristics of most propolis paths are in accordance with ISO 6876/2001 standards, their microsis is less than the Grossman paths, and the pH of their extracts in the water is appropriate is hopeful for possible clinical uses in the future.
