Enterococcus faecalis rnc gene modulates its susceptibility to disinfection agents: a novel approach against biofilm
Abstract Background Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) plays an important role in the failure of root canal treatment and refractory periapical periodontitis. As an important virulence factor of E. faecalis, extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) serves as a matrix to wrap bacteria and form biofilms. T...
