Regulatory Effect of Irresistin-16 on Competitive Dual-Species Biofilms Composed of <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> and <i>Streptococcus sanguinis</i>
Based on the ecological plaque hypothesis, suppressing opportunistic pathogens within biofilms, rather than killing microbes indiscriminately, could be a biofilm control strategy for managing dental caries. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of irresistin-16 (IRS-16) on competitive dual...
