    Slime production and adhesion properties among lactobacilli isolated from dental caries

  • Original language description

    Bacterial exopolysaccharides are attached to the cell wall (capsules) or secreted into the extracellular environment (slime) and they play an important role in adhesion properties of bacteria. The capacity to form biofilm is considered as a virulence factor. In our study a collection of 67 Lactobacillus spp. strains isolated from early childhood caries was tested for slime production and adhesion to solid surfaces. Analysed group consisted of Lactobacillus fermentum (20 strains), Lactobacillus rhamnosus(15), Lactobacillus casei/paracasei (14), Lactobacillus gasseri (7), Lactobacillus salivarius (7), and Lactobacillus plantarum (4). Slime-forming ability was tested on modified Congo red agar plates enabling direct analysis of the colonies and the selective recognition of slime forming strains. Bacterial adhesion onto the inner surface of the test tubes (borosilicate glass and polystyrene tube) was tested in brain heart infusion broth.
