Antimicrobial Property of Mango Twigs Extract against Dental Caries-causing Microorganisms (Streptococcus mutans‚ Streptococcus sobrinus) Jervene Venturina‚ Santiago Bataller Jr.‚ Raymark Camato Dental caries is an ecological disease in which the diet‚ the host and the microbial flora interact over a period of time in such a way as to encourage demineralisation of the tooth enamel which results to caries formation. This disease can affect both the enamel (the outer coating of the tooth) and

phosphoralation with the help of the enzyme Pyruvate kinase. The Krebs cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondria and with the presence of oxygen‚ is a process by which various enzymes complete the oxidation of the organic fuel. The Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex catalyzes three reactions‚ getting rid of Pyruvate’s carboxyl group (COO−) because it was already fully oxidized‚ using the remaining 2-carbon fragment to form acetate while also transferring extracted electrons to NAD+ to form NADH+‚

In the next step in aerobic respiration‚ each pyruvate‚ as produced by glycolysis in the cytosol‚ is normally converted to acetyl-CoA by pyruvate dehydrogenase in the mitochondria. During this process‚ electrons are transferred to NAD+‚ producing NADH‚ and a carbon is lost in the form of CO2 as a product. Acetyl-CoA then goes through another series of reactions in the TCA cycle‚ all of which also occurs in the mitochondria‚ to generate ATP and NADH through the complete oxidation of the molecule (generating

The most common form is 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD)‚ which is inherited in severe or mild forms. The severe form‚ called Classical CAH‚ is usually detected in the newborn period or in early childhood. The milder form‚ called Non-classical CAH (NCAH)‚ may cause symptoms at anytime from infancy

the mitochondrial matrix and its main function is to turn the pyruvate into acetate for the kerb cycle. During the link reaction the pyruvate molecule undergoes decarboxylation and dehydrogenation‚ the enzymes pyruvate decarboxylase and pyruvate dehydrogenase remove the carboxyl group (which becomes a carbon dioxide molecule) and removes the hydrogen atoms from the pyruvate molecule. The coenzyme NAD accepts the two hydrogen atoms and becomes reduced NADH2 and the coenzyme-A accepts the acetyl (from
