Journal ArticleDOI
A Critical Review of the Literature on Hydrogen Sulfide Toxicity
TL;DR: This review of the literature is intended as an evaluative report rather than an annotated bibliography of all the source material examined on hydrogen sulfide, noting information gaps that may require further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The formation of hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan by oral bacteria.
TL;DR: Findings significantly increase the list of oral bacteria known to produce volatile sulfur compounds as well as some members of the genera Fusobacterium, Bacteroides, Porphyromonas and Eubacterium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Volatile sulfur compounds in mouth air from clinically healthy subjects and patients with periodontal disease
Ken Yaegaki,K. Sanada +1 more
TL;DR: The results strongly suggest that, in addition to periodontal pockets, tongue coating has an important role in VSC production, in particular leading to an elevated concentration of methyl mercaptan, which is more pathogenic than hydrogen sulfide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation between volatile sulphur compounds and certain oral health measurements in the general population.
TL;DR: The results suggest that oral malodor might be caused mainly by tongue coating in the younger generation and by periodontal diseases together with tongues coating in older cohorts in the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproducibility and Sensitivity of Oral Malodor Measurements with a Portable Sulphide Monitor
TL;DR: Assessment of steady-state sulphide levels by the sulphide monitor does not constitute a direct measure of oral malodor, but its relation to organoleptic measurement, superior reproducibility, objectivity, and sensitivity support the use of the sulphideside monitor in clinical studies.
