Nutritional Requirements of Streptococcus mutans

Caries Research, 2009
Ten strains of Streptococcus mutans, representing four serological groups, have been grown in chemically defined media. For anaerobic growth, one of the strains required the following organic compounds: glucose, cysteine (or thioglycolic acid), biotin, p-aminobenzoic acid, thiamine, riboflavin, pyridoxine, pantothenic acid and nicotinic acid.

Virulence properties of Streptococcus Mutans

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2004
Streptococcus mutans is considered one of the primary causative agents of dental caries and can also be a source of infective endocarditis. The main virulence factors associated with cariogenicity include adhesion, acidogenicity, and acid tolerance. Each of these properties works coordinately to alter dental plaque ecology.

Ribose biosynthesis in Streptococcus mutans

Archives of Oral Biology, 1977
Abstract Crude extracts of Streptococcus salivarius ATCC 25975 and the five serological types of Streptococcus mutans were assayed under various conditions for the enzymes glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, transketolase and transaldolase.

Candida albicans Increases Dentine Demineralization Provoked by Streptococcus mutans Biofilm

Caries Research, 2018
Streptococcus mutans are considered the most cariogenic bacteria, but it has been suggested that Candida albicans could increase their cariogenicity.

Adhesion of Streptococcus rattus and Streptococcus mutans to metal surfaces

European Journal of Oral Sciences, 1988
Abstract – The adhesion of Streptococcus rattus BHT and Streptococcus mutans IB to metal specimens of amalgam, silver, tin and copper was studied using (6‐3H)thymidine labeled cells. In the standard assay the metal specimens were suspended by a nylon thread in an adhesion solution containing a chemically defined bacterial growth medium (FMC), sucrose,

Growth of Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguis in mixed culture

Archives of Oral Biology, 1971
In an anaerobic atmosphere, Streptococcus mutans strain JC 2 and Streptococcus sanguis strain 804 required ammonia, cysteine, B-vitamins, glucose and salts for growth. The only difference in nutritional requirements between the two strains was a requirement for p-aminobenzoic acid by Strep. mutans, but not by Strep. sanguis. In a mixed culture of Strep.

Antimicrobial activity of vanadium chloroperoxidase on planktonic Streptococcus mutans cells and Streptococcus mutans biofilms.

Caries research, 2009
The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of vanadium chloroperoxidase (VCPO) reaction products on planktonic and biofilm cells of Streptococcus mutans C180-2. Planktonic and biofilm cells were incubated in a buffered reaction mixture containing VCPO, halide (either chloride or bromide) and hydrogen peroxide, and the killing ...
