Evaluation of the ability of the trypsin-like peptidase activity assay to detect severe periodontitis.

Evaluation of the ability of the trypsin-like peptidase activity assay to detect severe periodontitis.

<h4>Objectives</h4>N-benzoyl-DL-arginine peptidase (trypsin-like peptidase) is specifically produced by certain strains of periodontitis-associated bacteria. We aimed to examine the effectiveness of an objectively quantified trypsin-like peptidase activity assay (TLP-AA) for detecting se...
