Abstract excerpt
The present investigation explored the genotypic heterogeneity of Porphyromonas gingivalis using restriction endonuclease analysis and ribotyping of 64 P. gingivalis isolates, recovered from the periodontal pockets of 3 beagle dogs, 2 of which were reared together. The isolates originated from both healthy and periodontal disease affected sites and thereby enabled the study of bacterial genotype with respect to...
