Comparison of the Oral Bacterial Flora in Saliva from a Healthy Subject and Two Periodontitis Patients by Sequence Analysis of 16S rDNA Libraries
1 Aug 2000
Abstract excerpt
The oral bacterial flora in the saliva from two patients with periodontitis and from a periodontally healthy subject were compared using a sequence analysis of 16S rDNA libraries without cultivation. 16S rDNAs were amplified from salivary DNA by PCR and cloned. Randomly selected clones were partially sequenced. On the basis of sequence similarities, the clones were classified into several clusters corresponding...
