METHOD FOR EXTRACTING TOOTH PROTEIN FROM PULLED TOOTH AND USAGE OF TOOTH PROTEIN

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for extracting a tooth protein from a pulled tooth using PVDF membrane is provided to increase an extracting efficiency of a tooth protein and to confirm an amino acid sequence without a further step. CONSTITUTION: The method for extracting a tooth protein from a pulled tooth comprises the steps of: washing the whole tooth without removing an enamel from the pulled tooth, using a distilled water; crushing the tooth and washing the tooth; degreasing and deliming using an organic solvent; re-degreasing and washing the delimed specimen; and extracting the tooth protein. The tooth protein is used as a bone forming material or as a calcification and ossification material.
