A 5' nuclease TaqMan PCR assay was developed for the quantitative detection of the major cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus. The absolute and relative numbers of bacteria were measured by this method. This assay will be useful for quantifying these organisms in oral specimens and for analyzing biofilm formation.
开发了一种5'核酸酶TaqMan PCR检测法,用于定量检测主要致龋菌变形链球菌和远缘链球菌。通过该方法测定细菌的绝对数量和相对数量。该检测法将有助于定量口腔标本中的这些微生物,并分析生物膜的形成。
