Salivary pellicles on titanium and their effect on metabolic activity in Streptococcus oralis [PDF]
BMC Oral Health, 2013 Abstract Background Titanium implants in the oral cavity are covered with a saliva-derived pellicle to which early colonizing microorganisms such as Streptococcus oralis can bind. The protein profiles of salivary pellicles on titanium have not been well characterized and the proteins of importance for binding are thus
