Inhibition of Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation by strategies targeting the metabolism of exopolysaccharides

Critical reviews in microbiology, 2021
Dental caries is one of the most prevalent and costly biofilm-associated infectious diseases affecting most of the world’s population. In particular, dental caries is driven by dysbiosis of the dental biofilm adherent to the enamel surface.

Streptococcus mutans endocarditis

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1977
A patient with a repaired ventriculo-septal cefect andStreptococcus mutans endocarditis is described. Correct bacteriological diagnosis was followed by successful treatment with penicillin alone. The risk to patients with caricus teeth who have had cardiac surgery is discussed.

Recurrent streptococcus mutans endocarditis

The American Journal of Medicine, 1987
Recurrent bacterial endocarditis is associated with several risk factors including parenteral drug abuse, past valvular heart disease, and periodontitis. Recurrence rates vary from 2 to 18 percent for a single recurrence, and 1 to 5 percent for two recurrences.

Streptococcus mutans Endocarditis

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1974
Abstract Nine patients withStreptococcus mutansendocarditis were seen between 1966 and 1973. They had the typical clinical picture of subacute bacterial endocarditis, with fever, heart murmur, and ...

Dual Mode of Anti-biofilm Action of G3 against Streptococcus mutans.

ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 2020
Oral biofilms, formed by multiple microorganisms and their extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), seriously affect people's life. Emergence of the resistance of biofilms to conventional antibiotics and their side effects to the oral cavity have posed ...

The Antibacterial Effect of Graphene Oxide on Streptococcus mutans.

Journal of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, 2020
To select the optimal graphene oxide (GO) for anticaries dental applications, aqueous dispersions containing GO nanosheets with various oxygen-containing functional groups were prepared and characterized using atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray ...

Immunoperoxidase staining of Streptococcus mutans

Archives of Oral Biology, 1974
Abstract Cells from two scrologically different strains of Streptococcus mutans strain B13 and strain IB were treated immuno-histochemically for electron microscopy. Both strains were incubated first with specific rabbit anti-B13 serum and then with sheep anti-rabbit serum labelled with horse-radish peroxidase and finally histochemically stained for ...

pH Regulation by Streptococcus mutans

Journal of Dental Research, 1992
The intracellular pH (pH i) optimum for glycolysis in Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt was determined to be 7.0 by use of the ionophore gramicidin for manipulation of pHi. Glycolytic activity decreased to zero as the pHi was lowered from 7.0 to 5.0. In contrast, glycolysis had an extracellular pH (pHo) optimum of 6.0 with a much broader profile.

Empyema due to Streptococcus mutans

Chest, 1977
Empyema due to Streptococcus mutans occurred following dental manipulation in two patients with periodontal disease. Isolation of this dental pathogen from pleural fluid localized the site of origin of the empyemas to the oropharynx and precluded the need to search for a remote intra-abdominal source of these pleuropulmonary infections.

Pulp response to Streptococcus mutans

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1987
The maxillary molar pulps of germ-free rats were mechanically exposed, and suspensions of a strain of freshly grown Streptococcus mutans were applied to the pulp wounds. The pulps were left open to the oral environment, and the animals were maintained in the isolator until they were killed in groups after 2, 7, and 28 days.
