Amylase-binding as a discriminator among oral streptococci.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Jan 1990

Douglas C W, Pease A A, Whiley R A

Abstract excerpt

The ability of 51 strains, belonging to Streptococcus sanguis, 'S. mitior', S. oralis and related groups, to bind salivary amylase was studied. Most strains were grouped according to their DNA-relatedness and then compared using 14 phenotypic tests. S. mitis, 'S. mitior' and three relatively new groups of strains ('CR', 'MGH' and 'Tufted mitior') bound salivary amylase, while strains of S. sanguis and S. oralis...
