1. Acid Tolerance of Streptococcus Mutans Biofilms
Abstract : Mikrobiologisk forskning har till stor del bedrivits genom att man odlat bakterier i näringslösningar och på agarplattor och sedan studera bakterierna på olika sätt. Detta sätt att odla bakterier överensstämmer inte särskilt bra med hur bakterier växer i verkligenheten. READ MORE

2. Bacteria-agglutinating glycoproteins in human saliva : an in vitro study with special reference to Streptococcus mutans
Abstract : The activity and specificity of salivary glycoproteins (agglutinins) aggregating various human indigenous microorganisms were studied in vitro. The agglutinin reacting with a serotype c strain of Streptococcus mutans was isolated and chemically characterized.The results can be summarized as follows:1. READ MORE

3. HLA, salivary IgA and mutans streptococci - is there a relation?
Abstract : Mutansstreptokocker (MS) är en grupp bakterier som i många studier visats ha ett starkt samband med karies. Bakterierna anses tillhöra vår normala munflora, men alla individer har inte MS och mängden skiljer sig mycket från en individ till en annan. Orsakerna till denna variation är till viss del välkända, som t.ex. READ MORE

4. Structural studies of the surface adhesin SspB from Streptococcus gordonii
Abstract : Surface proteins on microorganisms that build up the oral biofilm are key players in the formation of the biofilm. Antigen I/II proteins are surface adhesins found on virtually all oral streptococci and share a conserved multi-domain architecture. These adhesins bind surface components on other bacteria and on host cells. READ MORE

5. Host ligands and oral bacterial adhesion : studies on phosphorylated polypeptides and gp-340 in saliva and milk
Abstract : Infectious diseases e.g. gastric ulcer, caries and perodontitis, are caused by bacteria in a biofilm. Adhesion of bacteria to host ligands e. READ MORE
