Effect of Isolated Specific Lytic Phage against Growth and Biofilm Inhibition of Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguinis Isolated from Decayed Dental Plaque
Background and purpose: Despite advances in oral health and dental industry, tooth decay remains one of the most common oral diseases. One of the new methods to combat dental plaque, which is the main cause of caries, is using specific lytic bacteriophage. This study aimed to investigate the effect of isolated specific lytic phage against growth and biofilm inhibition of Streptococcus mutans an...
متن کاملCompetition and coexistence between Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguinis in the dental biofilm.
The human mucosal surface is colonized by the indigenous microflora, which normally maintains an ecological balance among different species. Certain environmental or biological factors, however, may trigger disruption of this balance, leading to microbial diseases. In this study, we used two oral bacterial species, Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sanguinis (formerly S. sanguis), as a mod...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of commercially available essential oils against Streptococcus mutans.
INTRODUCTION Many essential oils have been advocated for use in complementary medicine for bacterial and fungal infections. However, few of the many claims of therapeutic efficacy have been validated adequately by either in vitro testing or in vivo clinical trials. OBJECTIVE To study the antibacterial activity of nine commercially available essential oils against Streptococcus mutans in vitro...
متن کاملNovel synthetic antimicrobial peptides against Streptococcus mutans.
Streptococcus mutans, a common oral pathogen and the causative agent of dental caries, has persisted and even thrived on the tooth surface despite constant removal and eradication efforts. In this study, we generated a number of synthetic antimicrobial peptides against this bacterium via construction and screening of several structurally diverse peptide libraries where the hydrophobicity and ch...
متن کاملتأثیر عصاره های گال مازو بلوط بر رشد و تشکیل بیوفیلم استرپتوکوکوس موتانس
Background and purpose: Dental caries is a pathological infectious disease. It begins with the formation of dental plaques which is a structurally and functionally organized biofilm. Streptococcus mutans is the most important bacterium in the formation of dental plaque and dental caries. This study aimed at evaluating the antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of Quercus infectoria galls agains...
