Pig jaws were also treated by plasma to detect if there is any harmful effect on the gingiva.The plasma was characterized by using optical emission spectroscopy.Experimental data indicated that the discharge is very effective in deactivating Streptococcus mutans biofilms.It can destroy them with an average decimal reduction time(D-time) of 19 s and about 98%of thein were killed after a treatment time of 30 s.According to the survival curve kinetic an overall 32 s treatment time would be necessary to perform a complete sterilization.The experimental results presented in this study indicated that the helium dielectric barrier discharge,in plan-parallel electrode configuration,could be a very effective tool for deactivation of oral bacteria and might be a promising technique in various dental clinical applications.展开更多
目的:建立一种快速、简便地同时检测变形链球菌和远缘链球菌的方法。方法:以变形链球菌Dextranase基因设计引物,用PCR检测变形链球菌群细菌。结果:变形链球菌(血清型c、e、f)的PCR扩增产物为720 bp;远缘链球菌(血清型d、g)的PCR扩增产物...目的:建立一种快速、简便地同时检测变形链球菌和远缘链球菌的方法。方法:以变形链球菌Dextranase基因设计引物,用PCR检测变形链球菌群细菌。结果:变形链球菌(血清型c、e、f)的PCR扩增产物为720 bp;远缘链球菌(血清型d、g)的PCR扩增产物为460 bp;道勒链球菌(血清型h)910 bp;仓鼠链球菌(血清型a),鼠链球菌(血清型b)均为1 270 bp。其它异种菌均不能扩增出产物,因此该PCR检测具有高度的特异性。从细菌纯培养物中PCR检测的敏感性为105菌落形成单位(colony-form ing un its,CFU)。结论:PCR能同时检测变形链球菌和远缘链球菌。该检测方法具有较高的敏感性和特异性,有望运用于临床检测。展开更多
