FIG. 5.

Confocal micrographs of typical multigeneric clusters of cells found on enamel chips at 4 h (A and B) and 8 h (C and D) of plaque development. Cells were simultaneously labeled with all-bacterium-specific EUB338 probe (red) and either the Streptococcus-specific STR405 probe (A and B) (green) or the Prevotella-specific PRV392 probe (C and D) (green). (A and B) Unidentified bacterial cells (EUB338 reactive; red) juxtaposed with Streptococcus cells (EUB338 and STR405 reactive; red + green = yellow). (C and D) Unidentified bacterial cells (EUB338 reactive; red) in association with Prevotella cells (EUB338 and PRV392 reactive; red +green = yellow). Scale bar for all images, 5 μm.
