Species Designations Belie Phenotypic and Genotypic Heterogeneity in Oral Streptococci
2018-07-23
Abstract excerpt
Health-associated oral Streptococcus species are promising probiotic candidates to protect against dental caries. Ammonia production through the arginine deiminase system (ADS), which can increase the pH of oral biofilms, and direct antagonism of caries-associated bacterial species are desirable properties for oral probiotic strains. ADS and antagonistic activities can vary dramatically among individuals, but the...
