Artemisinin as a novel endodontic irrigant: In vitro assessment of antimicrobial, antioxidant, and Fourier transform infrared-based structural characterization
Artemisinin demonstrates dual antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, suggesting its potential as a safer, biologically compatible endodontic irrigant. To validate the <i>in vitro</i> findings, further research for defining its efficacy, optimum concentration, and safety parameters are required under <i>in vivo</i> as well as clinical conditions.
