Abstract
the cytotoxicity of there resin-based root canal sealers (AH26, AH-Plu s, Topseal) was evaluated in vitro. The experiments included two cell lines, L929 mouse skin fibroblasts and RPC-C2A rat pulp cells. The cyt otoxicity was assessed by sulforodamine B (SRB) colorimetric assay and hemocytometer viable cell counting after 24- and 48-h exposure. AH26 had a severe cytotoxic effect whilst Topseal and AH-Plus showed a mark edly lower toxic influence on the cells during the experimental period .
