    Journal: Gen Dent; 2005; 53(3):182-6. PubMed ID: 15960475.
    Abstract:
    This study involved a comparative examination of different disinfectant solutions and their antimicrobial substantivity against Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Candida albicans. All of the disinfectants containing chlorhexidine and benzalkonium chloride demonstrated substantive antibacterial activity. Chlorhexidine-based solutions displayed the longest and most effective antimicrobial activity.
