Use of a High-throughput <em>In Vitro</em> Microfluidic System to Develop Oral Multi-species Biofilms

Abstract excerpt

There are few high-throughput in vitro systems which facilitate the development of multi-species biofilms that contain numerous species commonly detected within in vivo oral biofilms. Furthermore, a system that uses natural human saliva as the nutrient source, instead of artificial media, is particularly desirable in order to support the expression of cellular and biofilm-specific properties that mimic the in...
