Polymicrobial interactions between Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus sanguinis and oral associated Candida albicans on an in vitro salivary biofilm and differential expression of ALS1, ALS2 and ALS3 genes

Interactions between oral microorganisms contribute to formation of polymicrobial communities on surfaces and prosthetics.Since streptococci are early colonizers, the ability of Candida albicans to adhere to streptococci paves the way for an additional surface for candidal colonization and propagation.This study aimed to investigate the molecular r
