Result:The maximum inhibitor diameter for each isolation was 11.17 mm at 10 10 CFU for the dorsum of tongue isolates and 8.17 mm at 10 9 CFU for saliva isolates.Conclusions: Clinical S. salivarius isolates from the dorsum of tongue had greater potential for inhibiting E. faecalis growth compared to the saliva isolates and control bacteria.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
