Modulation of <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> Adherence to Hydroxyapatite by Engineered Salivary Peptides
Since the modification of the proteinaceous components of the Acquired Enamel Pellicle (AEP) could influence the adhesion of <i>Streptococcus mutans,</i> the most cariogenic bacteria, to dental surfaces, we assessed if engineered salivary peptides would affect the adherence and modulate...
