title: CARIOSTATIC EFFECT OF PHOSPHATES.
abstract: The caries-preventive effect of phosphate additives in cariogenic diets fed to white rats has been further demonstrated. Diammonium phosphate, beta-glycerol phosphate, and sodium phytate again were shown to be caries-inhibiting, as was a 1,6-fructose diphosphate. The caries-inhibiting action of organic phosphates may coincide with a caries-protective factor presumed lost in the refining of sugar and in the processing of certain cereal foods.
