Confocal microscopic images of S. mutans UA159 sucrose biofilms. Biofilms of S. mutans UA159 were formed in BM supplemented with 20 mM sucrose in the presence of fluid-phase PBS, UWS, salivary agglutinin preparations (SAG), and mock agglutinin preparations (MAG), and stained with SYTO 13. There was no significant difference in microscopic images between adsorbed and fluid-phase salivary preparations. Data presented here are representative of three independent experiments.
