Evaluation of genotypic diversity of Streptococcus mutans using distinct arbitrary primers
Streptococcus mutans has been considered one of the main etiological agents of dental caries and the genotypic diversity rather than its salivary counts may be considered as a virulence factor of this bacterium. For genotyping with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with arbitrary primers, several prim...
