Influence of growth conditions on adherence of Streptococcus mutans ingbritt to saliva-coated hydroxyapatite.

RESUMO
Streptococcus mutans Ingbritt grown under standardized conditions adhered less effectively to saliva-coated hydroxyapatite beads than did Streptococcus sanguis G9B, and there was competition for binding. The results with Ingbritt were influenced by the generation time, the pH of growth, and the carbohydrate source as shown by studies on organisms grown in continuous culture.
