- Title
Cariogenic Potential of Bifidobacterium in Gnotobiotic Rats.
- Authors
VAN HOUTE, J.; VAN PALENSTEIN-HELDERMAN, W. H.
- Abstract
This article discusses the results of a research study conducted to determine the cariogenicity of two strains of Bifidobacterium in germ-free rats. The strains examined were 98B10, from human dental plaque, and 39B, from human feces. The researchers are unable to offer a definitive conclusion due to uncertainty about the reasons why the cariogenic potential of Bifidobacterium is observed to be limited.
