The Oral Yeast-Lactobacillus Relationship IV. pH and Phosphate Concentration as Contributing Factors

Abstract

SYNOPSIS IN INTERLINGUA

LE RELATION INTER SACCHAROMYCETES E LACTOBACILLOS ORAL. IV. LE NIVELLO DE PH E LE CONCENTRATION DE PHOSPHATO COMO FACTORES CONTRIBUTORI.—Bacterios productori de acido lactic cresce plus rapidemente e produce plus acido in le presentia de saccharomycetes oral que in le absentia de illos. Le stimulation del crescentia de Lactobacillus casei per Candida albicans se monstrava relationate con le concentration de phosphato. Le crescentia de L. casei in un medio non conditionate per le presentia de C. albicans non esseva influentiate per le concentrationes de phosphato testate. Le stimulation del crescentia de L. casei in medios conditionate per le presentia de C. albicans esseva identic a differente nivellos de pH. Un influentia significative del saccharomycetes es que illos rende le lactobacillos capace a initiar lor crescentia e de facto a crescer con un rapiditate relative a elevate nivellos de pH.
