Model delineating the effects of a salivary pellicle on the adsorption of Streptococcus miteor onto hydroxyapatite.

R J Gibbons, E C Moreno and D M Spinell

ABSTRACT

A model describing the adsorption isotherms for Streptococcus miteor strain 26 to untreated and saliva-treated hydroxyapatite was developed. The strengths of the adsorption bonds in the two systems were similar, however, the presence of selectively adsorbed salivary components increased the number of available binding sites fourfold.
