The Role of Hydrogen Peroxide in Environmental Adaptation of Oral Microbial Communities

Oral streptococci are able to produce growth-inhibiting amounts of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) as byproduct of aerobic metabolism. Several recent studies showed that the produced H(2)O(2) is not a simple byproduct of metabolism but functions in several aspects of oral bacterial biofilm ecology. Fir...
