Evaluating Streptococcus mutans Strain Dependent Characteristics in a Polymicrobial Biofilm Community

Evaluating Streptococcus mutans Strain Dependent Characteristics in a Polymicrobial Biofilm Community

Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate strain dependent differences of the cariogenic biofilm forming Streptococcus mutans within both simple and complex communities.Methods: A mono-species containing representative S. mutans clinical isolates (caries and non-caries), and a multispecies i...
