Single DNase or Proteinase Treatment Induces Change in Composition and Structural Integrity of Multispecies Oral Biofilms
Biofilm virulence is mainly based on its bacterial cell surrounding biofilm matrix, which contains a scaffold of exopolysaccharides, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Targeting these nucleid acids or proteins could enable an efficient biofilm control. Therefore, the study aimed to...
