Five xylitol metabolizing streptococci strains from the oral cavity of the rat were examined with regard to their metabolic capacities for xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol, fructose, glucose and saccharose by means of the Warburg technique. The amounts metabolized were smallest with xylitol and sorbitol and considerably bigger with mannitol and fructose. By far the highest CO2 values were obtained with glucose, while saccharose was not metabolized at all. The experimental results confirm the weak metabolic capability of these organisms with regard to the sugar substitute xylitol.
采用瓦氏呼吸仪技术，对从大鼠口腔分离出的5株木糖醇代谢链球菌进行检测，观察它们对木糖醇、山梨醇、甘露醇、果糖、葡萄糖和蔗糖的代谢能力。木糖醇和山梨醇的代谢量最少，甘露醇和果糖的代谢量则显著增加。葡萄糖产生的二氧化碳值最高，而蔗糖完全不被代谢。实验结果证实了这些微生物对糖替代品木糖醇的代谢能力较弱。
