ACS Nano Paper on Sr-, Ca-Doped BaTiO₃ (acsnano.5c16997)

The peer-reviewed counterpart to the BSCT (Ba₀.₉Sr₀.₀₅Ca₀.₀₅TiO₃) patent dossier is an article in ACS Nano with DOI 10.1021/acsnano.5c16997, titled:

Sr-, Ca-Doped BaTiO₃ with Synergistic Piezoelectric Catalysis and Microbial Balance Effects Enables Tooth Whitening for Home Oral Health

The source archive dossier (Min Xing et al., Sr-Ca-Ba-TiO₃ Toothpaste: Whitening and Remineralization Dossier) quotes the paper's abstract and links to its Supporting Information PDF. The full paper is not reproduced in the dossier.

Abstract claims as quoted

  • A "nondestructive, convenient teeth whitening strategy based on Ba₀.₉Sr₀.₀₅Ca₀.₀₅TiO₃ (BSCT)" accompanied by piezoelectric catalysis, biomimetic remineralization and microbial community regulation.
  • BSCT generates •O₂⁻ and •OH in situ under mechanical vibration, degrading organic dyes and inhibiting cariogenic bacterial activity.
  • Ca²⁺ and Sr²⁺ released from BSCT form localized ion-enriched zones on enamel and dentin, promoting remineralization.
  • Mechanistically, the piezoelectric polarization field disrupts bacterial membrane potential and structural integrity, weakens the proton motive force (PMF), and inhibits F₀F₁-ATP synthase to block ATP synthesis.
  • The paper describes as an "innovative discovery" that BSCT selectively inhibits dominant pathogenic bacteria while promoting restoration of beneficial microbial communities.

Evidence status

The dossier shows only the abstract and selected characterization statements. It does not include the paper's figures, statistics, sample sizes, controls, or any independent replication. The paper is the primary scientific source for the claims, but the wiki has not seen its full contents and does not treat the abstract as complete evidence.
