Streptococcus sobrinus is known to possess cariogenic properties in vitro. It can produce
acid in large amounts and it has the capacity to adhere to enamel and other surfaces …

The cariogenic potential of fresh humans strains of Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus
sobrinus was examined in hamsters maintained on a high sucrose d'et. The strains IB 16 (S …

Acid production by washed suspensions of human strains of Streptococcus mutans (n= 18)
and Streptococcus sobrinus (n= 12) was measured. The strains were isolated from infants …

Streptococcus mutans is known to be one of the most cariogenic oral microorganisms.
Recently, organisms classified as S. mutans have been shown to be genotypically …

A strain of Streptococcus mutans isolated from a carious lesion of a patient and known to
cause caries in hamsters and monkeys were grown in a complex medium in a chemostat …

Whilst the importance of the mutans streptococci in the aetiology of dental caries is clear, a
number of studies have described caries development in their absence. This investigation …

Susceptibility of rats, hamsters, and mice to carious infection by S. mutans serotypes c and d
was compared. S. mutans serotype c induced a similar level of carious lesions at …

Gnotobiotic rats infected with Streptococcus mutans 6715 at 19 days of age and fed a
purified diet (305) containing 5% sucrose developed extensive caries lesions on all molar …

This study compared the initial (4 h) microflora on enamel in 7 caries-active and in 7 caries-
inactive adolescents. In both groups the microflora was dominated by streptococci which …

Isolates of Streptococcusmilleri were tested for cariogenicity in gnotobiotic Liverpool hooded
rats. Representative strains of Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus mutons, Streptococcus …
