Molecular Identification of Cultivable Bacteria From Infected Root Canals Associated With Acute Apical Abscess
23 May 2016
Abstract excerpt
The objective of this study was to investigate the bacterial composition present in root canals of teeth associated with acute apical abscess by molecular identification (16S rRNA) of cultivable bacteria. Two hundred and twenty strains isolated by culture from 20 root canals were subjected to DNA extraction and amplification of the 16S rRNA gene (PCR), followed by sequencing. The resulting nucleotide sequences...
