16S rRNA gene-based metagenomic analysis identifies a novel bacterial co-prevalence pattern in dental caries
1 Jan 2015
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify the prevalence of acidogenic and nonacidogenic bacteria in patients with polycaries lesions, and to ascertain caries specific bacterial prevalence in relation to noncaries controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Total genomic DNA extracted from saliva of three adults and four children from the same family were subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis on a next generation sequencer, the...
