Abstract: Dentifrice compositions comprising water, bicarbonate salt, and glycine or a salt thereof are effective in treating dental plaque biofilm. A dentifrice composition may include from about 15% to about 55%, by weight of the composition, of water, from about 20% to about 40% by weight of the composition, of sodium bicarbonate, from about 0.05% to about 5%, by weight of the composition, of neutral amino acid, where the neutral amino acid comprises glycine or a salt thereof, and from about 0.0025% to about 2%, by weight of the composition, of fluoride.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to nanolipoprotein particle conjugates comprising at least one polypeptide and nanolipoprotein particle conjugates comprising at least one short peptide between 20-60 amino acids in length. Also provided are related compositions and systems, and methods of preparing and using same. In particular, nanolipoprotein particle (NLP) conjugates with antigen-binding fragments (Fabs) are provided, where the NLP comprises a bilayer of membrane-forming lipids encircled by scaffold proteins, and the Fabs are conjugated to one or both bilayer surfaces. In some embodiments, the (NLP) conjugates further comprise a short peptide 20-60 amino acids in length.
