Effect of reduced nutritional supply on the metabolic activity and survival of cariogenic bacteria in vitro

Sealed cariogenic bacteria are deprived from dietary carbohydrate, but could be provided with nutrients by pulpal fluids, with adaptive strain-specific activities being possible. We investigated survival and metabolic activity of the cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus sobrinus, Actinomyces naeslundii...
