Antibacterial action of the irrigants against Enterococcus faecalis in the root canal The overall percentage reduction of E. faecalis inside the root canal after biomechanical procedures was presented in table1. All the irrigants significantly reduced bacteria in comparison with positive control group (P< 0.01). The average reduction of bacteria in the presence of E.galbie did not have any significant difference with 2.5% NaOCl‚ CHX 2%‚ CHX 0.2% and M.communis L. (P > 0.05). The average reduction

A blood sample should be taken and a complete blood count (CBC) should be performed and a lumbar puncture should also be performed as soon as possible. Laboratory findings The white blood cell count (WBC) should be 5‚000-10‚000 /mm3. Critical values associated WBC are 30‚000 /mm3. Variables that may increase white blood cell count include: Physical activity and stress‚ final months of pregnancy and/or labor
