Effect of <i>Veillonella parvula</i> on the antimicrobial resistance and gene expression of <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> grown in a dual‐species biofilm
8 Apr 2008
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Our previous studies showed that Streptococcus mutans and Veillonella parvula dual-species biofilms have a different acid production profile and a higher resistance to chlorhexidine than their single-species counterparts. The aim of the current study was to test whether the susceptibility of S. mutans grown in the presence of V. parvula is also decreased when it is exposed to various other...
