Biofilms are ubiquitous in the natural and man-made environment. They are defined as
microbes that are encapsulated in an extracellular, self-produced, biofilm matrix. Growing …

As a major etiological agent of human dental caries, Streptococcus mutans resides primarily
in biofilms that form on the tooth surfaces, also known as dental plaque. In addition to caries …

Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Streptococcus; GAS) is an exclusively human pathogen.
This bacterial species is responsible for a large variety of infections, ranging from purulent …

Dental caries is a common infectious disease associated with acidogenic and aciduric
bacteria, including Streptococcus mutans. Organisms that cause cavities form recalcitrant …

Amyloids have been identified as functional components of the extracellular matrix of
bacterial biofilms. Streptococcus mutans is an established aetiologic agent of dental caries …

Objectives To evaluate the synergistic effect of Quercitrin and Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ)
together with their individual inhibitory effect against virulence pathways of Streptococcus …

Bacterial pili are long, multi-subunit protein assemblies that extend from bacterial surfaces,
mediating adhesion and colonisation. The recently characterised pili expressed by Gram …

Streptococcus mutans is a Gram-positive oral bacterium that is a primary etiological agent
associated with human dental caries. In the oral cavity, S. mutans adheres to immobilized …

Like Streptococcus mutans, lactobacilli are commonly isolated from carious sites, although
their exact role in caries development remains unclear. This study used mixed-species …

Streptococcus mutans is an etiologic agent of human dental caries that forms dental plaque
biofilms containing functional amyloids. Three amyloidogenic proteins, P1, WapA, and …
