Effect of phototherapy on the metabolism of Streptococcus mutans biofilm based on a colorimetric tetrazolium assay
The aim of this in vitro study was to determine the effect of violet-blue light on the metabolic activity of early Streptococcus mutans biofilm, reincubated at 0, 2, and 6 h after 5 min of violet-blue light treatment. S. mutans UA159 biofilm cells were cultured for 12 to 16 h in microtiter plates wi...
