Involvement of antigen I/II surface proteins in <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> and <i>Streptococcus intermedius</i> biofilm formation

Abstract

The results indicated that Ag I/II may be important during biofilm formation particularly in the presence of saliva. These findings may provide useful information regarding the importance of Ag I/II in biofilm formation and in the search of new strategies to control biofilm-mediated infections.
