The disc diffusion method was used for testing bacterial sensitivity.<br /><strong>Results</strong>: AHF was less effective than SDF but more effective than NaF for inhibiting growth of bacteria.<br /><strong>Conclusions:</strong> AHF could be effective for inhibiting the growth of V. parvula without the side effects of SDF.<br /><br /></p> ER -
