Gingival crevicular fluid: An overview
Gingival crevicular fluid is an inflammatory exudate derived from the periodontal tissues. It is composed of serum and locally generated materials such as tissue breakdown products, inflammatory mediators, and antibodies directed against dental plaque ...

Salivary and crevicular fluid interleukins in gingivitis [PDF]
Introduction: Gingivitis is a frequent inflammatory process of the gum tissue that is mainly caused by the accumulation of plaque. The immune response against inflammatory processes is regulated in part by cytokines.

Human Gingival Crevicular Fluids (GCF) Proteomics: An Overview [PDF]
Like other fluids of the human body, a gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) contains proteins, a diverse population of cells, desquamated epithelial cells, and bacteria from adjacent plaque. Proteomic tools have revolutionized the characterization of proteins

Hydroxyproline determination in serum and gingival crevicular fluid [PDF]
A high‐performance liquid chromatographic assay for total hydroxyproline in serum and gingival crevicular fluid has been developed. The Clq component of the first complement factor was precipitated out of the samples with a 0.02 M sodium acetate solution.

Gingival crevicular fluid and saliva [PDF]
AbstractUnderstanding the structure and function of the mouth, its tissues and secretions is of great interest to physiologists, cell biologists, immunologists and microbiologists but is also of fundamental interest to the dental professional interested in comprehending the aberrant processes associated with oral disease and in the application of ...

Effect of Gingivitis on Azithromycin Concentrations in Gingival Crevicular Fluid [PDF]
Background: Macrolide antibiotics yield high concentrations in inflamed tissue, suggesting that their levels in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) could be increased at gingivitis sites. However, the increased volume of GCF associated with gingivitis could potentially dilute macrolides.

Detection of herpes simplex virus type 1 in gingival crevicular fluid of gingival sulcus/periodontal pocket using polymerase chain reaction [PDF]
Introduction. Pathogenesis and some characteristics of periodontitis cannot be fully explained by bacterial etiology alone. Herpes viruses may bridge the gap between clinical characteristics and molecular understanding of periodontal destruction.
