Molecular Identification of Capnocytophaga spp. via 16S rRNA PCR-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis

Abstract excerpt

Capnocytophaga spp. have been implicated as putative periodontal pathogens associated with various periodontal diseases. Although the genus is known to contain five human oral isolates, accurate identification to species level of these organisms recovered from subgingival plaque has been hampered by the lack of a reliable method. Hence, most studies to date have reported these isolates as Capnocytophaga spp....
