When a solution of cephalin, or one of its component phosphatides, was brushed onto human enamel, the solution rate of enamel in acid was reduced. Statistically significant reductions were shown by as little as 0.003 per cent phosphatide, either in 50 per cent propylene glycol or in water. If cephalin is present in the phospholipid of saliva, it may contribute to dental caries resistance.
