Irritant potential of one buccal spray of propolis and eucalyptus in oral mucous of hamster
Main Article Content
Abstract
The buccal spray made from Propomax 5 and eucalyptus essential oil is a valid and effective for the welfare of the throat and oral cavity help. In addition to creating a protective layer that prevents the entry of viruses, bacteria and fungal growth, also it has anti-inflammatory effect on the mucous membranes of pharynx, larynx and throat. It stimulates the generation of dentine and prevents cavities and plaque. This formula is a solution that we will be used for application to oral mucous. One of the risks of this job is the potential irritant that could express the product by its contact with the oral mucous. For the characterization of their toxicological potential acute irritant effects after administration of the oral mucous hamster, five batches of a mouth spray solution were determined, showing an irritant response null; so we concluded that this substance classified as "Nonirritating".
